COACH OF THE YEAR

Jodd Bowles, Edward Little Alpine: In his sixth year as head coach, Bowles guided the Red Eddies to the Class A girls’ Alpine title, their fifth overall and first since 2004. Runner-up finishes in the team scoring in both slalom and giant slalom allowed consistency to triumph in the two-day event at Shawnee Peak, as Edward Little beat defending champion Fryeburg Academy by seven points. In challenging weather conditions, “We kind of kept it together better than anybody else,” Bowles said.
