🇺🇸⛷️ Huge congratulations to Camden Lewis ’27 on being named to the 2026-27 U.S. Moguls National Development Team!

“Through perseverance, consistency, and world-class performances, Cam established himself as one of the top young mogul skiers in North America and earned his place on the U.S. Development Team.” - Gould Freestyle Coach Sean Ennis

Cam had a remarkable 2026 season as the top-ranked American on the NorAm tour, capturing individual bronze and team silver medals at the Junior World Championships in Switzerland and taking 2nd place in Dual Moguls at the U.S. Championships at Palisades Tahoe. 🥉🥈

We are incredibly proud of your hard work and well-earned success, Cam! 👏👏
