*Note from Ken Dawson, MI Cup Points Keeper:
Here are the final individual results for the Michigan 2022-23 season. This includes Black Mountain races and High School Championships. I will be leaving for Austria on Sunday and will not be at relays, so will give Ernie all medal winners, pin awards, most points etc. prior to the relays.
I want to get this posted to all skiers so that I can make any final edits. Anyone that has given me changes should see those noted on this final edition. I need to get all final edits by the end of the day Thursday March 9th. After that I will make final results.
Please pay attention to age classes, since this is always one that is overlooked. Enjoy the Relays, a great event to end the season.
Thanks, Ken
