That is now 3 first places on the year! Tied for most WC wins by a pre-18 year old.
Crushing it!
She's got a real shot at the WC SL globe this year. Amazing.
Great NYT article
Thanks Tye! Great article. Fantastic kid!
Great that the young lady has hit her stride.
BUT
A 17 year old girl with national media attention, this never ends well.
Poor thing
Read about her MTT. She is very grounded, even starstruck at her competitors whom she is now beating.
I read it. You think the press is going to treat her differently?
That awe shucks thing will not last long. From what I read she sounds like a very impressive young woman. And it appears a pretty solid familly?
Or have they built (Universal Skier)
I just don’t like that the media looks to be ramping up to throw the Celebrity laser on her. Let see how that all goes
I know a mag that was her science teacher back in the day. She's killing it this year.
Proud to have been her first grade teacher! She was ripping it at age 7 too!
Slalom globe would be awfully impressive for her first full season of WC
So proud of Mikaela! She was a great student in my class back in the day at Vail. Just a great all around kid who deserves all of this. Hope I get the chance to congratulate her in person some time.
FYI: Ross teaches upper school. Mikalea moved just after finishing second grade at VMS.
