In case you missed it: local talents had a field day at the 2025 Odlum Brown BC Biathlon Championships despite less-than-favourable weather, to say the least.
Taje Hansen led a sweep of the individual youth men's podium on Feb. 22, with Jackson Smith pulling up second and Eric Piercey in third.
Fellow Whistler Nordic Development Centre (WNDC) athletes Ryan Elden and Trevor Schick won the men's 22+ and junior divisions respectively.
Holden Wilson of the Sea to Sky Nordics earned silver in the U17 standing race, while Claire Benson took bronze among girls. Camille Day and Max Murray finished third in their respective U17 prone divisions as Ivan Pozniak filled the runner-up hole in the adult 3 men's category.
On Feb. 23, Hansen, Elden and Schick emerged victorious in the mass start while Smith added a silver medal to his trophy case. Bronzes went to Piercey, Benson, Murray and Teja Stevens (U15 prone).
A total of 15 Sea to Sky Nordics members and five from the WNDC saw action in Mount Washington. A press release reads: "The wind and rain on Saturday made for very challenging conditions, ranking as the hardest event coaches and organizers have ever seen, but our athletes survived and even thrived at the event."
