TheSouth Kent School Mountain Biking team has had its most successful season ever. In early November, South Kent’s student-athletes competed in the Housatonic Mountain Biking League (HMBL) Championship at the Norbrook Farm trails in Colebrook, CT. The boys pushed hard all season and had a strong performance in their Championship rides. Third Form rider P. Samoilov earned 2nd place in the “C” division. B. Walsh finished 6th in the “B” division. G. Russell led all Cardinal riders with an 8th-place finish in the “A” division.
The top point earners for the South Kent School team were G. Russell, B. Walsh, N. Dwyer, J. Plumeri, and P. Samoilov. Together, their combined point totals were enough to secure third place in the HMBL for the season, the School’s best performance since joining the league. Congratulations to Coach Darrin and the South Kent School Mountain Biking team for their passion, self-discipline, camaraderie, and hard work all season!
