...night concluded with “Spirit Boy” and “Spirit Girl,” the Summerbridge mascots, leading the teachers in an ode to their students...
Tsai will be a co-captain next year along with freshman Eric Ode, taking over the men’s alpine duties from current captain Matt Perone. Sophomore Sam Simon, also a Crimson editor who took the fall semester off to work on a political campaign, will be rejoining the team next year...
