JACKSON — The Mount Washington Valley was well represented at the 2021 Biathlon National Championships in West Yellowstone, Montana from March 25-28. Grace and Theo Castonguay along with Eli Walker competed in the championships, while Lynne and Ted Castonguay, coaches of Thorne Mtn. Nordic and Biathlon, based out of Jackson, also made the trek west.
"They both did really well, that was only Grace’s second biathlon race weekend ever and Theo was the youngest in the age group (he aged up) and still bested people who competed at youth and junior worlds (as did Grace!)," Coach Lynne Castonguay shared. "Altitude certainly was a big factor for our New Englanders. Our friends from Maine biathlon were challenged by this as well. Eli had an awesome weekend!"
