Ski champ from Fairport tops Section Five Best
Fairport's Michael Stevens took home a state title in the giant slalom and was second in the slalom. He was the most decorated Section Five skier in this year's state championship and a worthy athlete for the number one spot in this week's Section Five Best.
Also making the list are Honeoye Falls-Lima nordic skiers Jenna Lawrence and Drew Larsen. Padilla Franklin's Anais Martinez had a big day at track sectionals. Jake Sansoucie of Schroeder represented the world of hockey with a sectional hat trick and Victor's Griffen Hopkins put up a 40-point game to close out the basketball regular season.
