Soar gets third place in dual moguls

Staff report

Killington’s Hannah Soar secured a podium spot and a third place finish in World Cup dual moguls at Deer Valley Resort in Utah on Sunday, Feb. 4.  

This was her best performance of the season and her first podium. Soar has  previously done well at Deer Valley — the only United States resort to host a World Cup women’s freestyle skiing event. A couple days before her podium, on Feb. 2, she scored fifth in moguls.

She got seventh place in moguls last year at the U.S. event and second in dual moguls in both 2020 and 2021. 

Soar, 23, graduated from Killington Mountain School and grew up competing in mogul competitions at Killington Resort.

“It’s been a minute since my last World Cup podium and I couldn’t be happier to be back under the lights @deervalleyresort and share the moment with @perrinelaffont and my archenemy @jaekauf Huge thank you to my most amazing teammates, you guys make these moments incredibly special — love you guys!” she wrote on Instagram.
