Maren Studt ♦ Pontiac Notre Dame Prep
Junior ♦ Skiing

After missing last season's MHSAA Finals with a broken collarbone, Studt stormed back in the best way imaginable this winter. She swept individual titles at Monday's Division 2 championship meet at Boyne Highlands, claiming the slalom with a two-run time of 1:16.10 and the giant slalom in 1:06.79. In doing so, she became Notre Dame Prep's first to sweep Finals races and the school's second champion, joining 2021 and 2022 slalom title winner Sydney Schulte. 

Studt entered the Finals coming off a GS championship and runner-up finish in slalom at her Regional at Alpine Valley in White Lake. Although she competed this time as an individual qualifier, she also has a team championship to her credit, as she finished 13th in GS as a freshman to help the Fighting Irish to the 2023 Division 2 title. Studt also plays on Notre Dame Prep's girls golf team and was its second-lowest scorer during last season's Lower Peninsula Division 3 Regional.
