WAICL Championships


Saturday the varsity climbing team traveled to Earth Treks Timonium to compete in the WAICL Championship.  In an absolute nail-biter Woodberry placed 2nd (one point off of first).  Personal bests were put up by Connor, Joel, and Woody.

Highlights 
Joel  earned 3rd place top male climber after besting two opponents in a overtime tie breaker.
Woody accomplished a career best 5.11b in that last few seconds to secure the 2nd place spot.
Connor and Joel climbed an incredibly difficult 5.11d (the first climbs of this difficulty this season)
Kav showed incredible selflessness and leadership by climbing a 5.10d in the last 10 min to close the gap on 2nd.
Ryan  showed his unbelievable toughness by completing a 5.10a despite stepping on his own hand on the climb before.

*The JV climbers will head up to Earth Treks Rockville on Tuesday to finish up a great season.
