Big congratulations to Tristan Metruk on the success of his National Honor Society project! 🎉 Through his hard work and dedication, Tristan raised $425 for the Fairfax United youth lacrosse program.
This program has been a starting point for so many BFA Fairfax athletes, making this project especially meaningful. Tristan’s effort is a great example of giving back to the community that helped shape so many student-athletes.
Way to go, Tristan! 🥍💙

BFA Fairfax athlete shines on the slopes!!
Bellows Free Academy Fairfax student-athlete Josie Riggs continues to excel on the slopes, showing dedication, determination, and a strong competitive spirit throughout the ski season. Her hard work and commitment to training have led to impressive performances, while her sportsmanship and school pride make her a strong representative of BFA Fairfax athletics. ✨🎿
Josie Riggs, of Fletcher, a sophomore at BFA-Fairfax, has had a stellar first season racing independently on the high school circuit. Josie finished 8th overall in the high School state championship Giant Slalom event, and 5th place overall in the slalom event, just behind Maddie. Josie also qualified for the Vermont High School Eastern team and helped the team earn the top spot this past weekend at Attitash.
Josie has also continued to succeed in club racing, representing Smuggler’s Notch Ski Club. At the State Championships for club racing last week in Stowe, sponsored by the Vermont Alpine Racing Association (VARA), Josie skied to a 6th place position, earning a spot to the US Ski and Snowboard Eastern championships at Sugarloaf in Maine on March 18-20. Club racing in Vermont pits local kids like Josie against athletes from elite ski academies in northern Vermont.
Josie says her “greatest accomplishment this year was qualifying for all the state and eastern championships. They all happened to line up one right after another, which was mentally and physically exhausting. However, I’m proud of the work that got me there and the results that came from it.”
