The Utah high school mountain bike state championships begin Friday and the Park City High School team is ready to ride.

Park City’s coach, Pete Stoughton, said the team has performed well at regional competitions across Utah this season.

He said the varsity boys team is the best since 2015, when the team won the state championship with Haley Batten.

“This is perhaps our deepest varsity boys group that we've ever had,” he said on KPCW’s Local News Hour Oct. 15. “As far as their speed, they’re breaking course records, and they're sometimes almost completely sweeping the varsity podiums and region.”

At the most recent Region 1 competition in Vernal, the boy’s varsity team claimed four of the top five places with Cohen Flach and Christopher Biglow finishing in second and third. Miners biker Oscar Sattelmeier crossed the finish in fourth and Kyle Clarke rounded out the top five.

The girl’s varsity team also did well at the Vernal race, with Greta Kirby and Izzy Crandall claiming the third and fourth positions.

The 2025 Utah High School Cycling League State Championships begin Friday, Oct. 17, in Cedar City.
