I started skiing at 21 months but we lived in Chicago, Illinois. I did my first race when I was 6 and raced part time until we moved out west. When I was 11 we moved to Utah full time so I could pursue my passion for ski racing. I have won the IMD champs overall for the last two years. Last year I was a first year J4 and was the first pick for the J4 festival in McCall Idaho. While at the J4 Festival I placed 1st for Slalom as the youngest girl there. I also play ODP soccer and volley ball. I’m a vegetarian and care about the environment.
2009 Races:
Snowbasin GS January 9th and 10th
Snowbird SL January 30th and 31st
Park City GS, SL, Kombi February 21st and 22nd
Snowbasin SG,SG and Kombi March 5 - 7th
Jackson Hole IMD Champs March 19th - 21st
Molly is sad that race season is almost over but was able to forerun at Snowbird for the last Chance Slaloms which is an open race with J1's down to J3's. It was her first chance to race against older kids this year and compare her times. The race ran for three days and she foreran 5 of the six races. She was over-all 11th the first day (a 19th and 6th.) Day two she was 7th on her one run and day three she was 7th over all – faster than all the J3's and first year J2's, but of course she was forerunning without ruts. Rossi had lent her a pair of next years SL skis to try out and they did the job.
