Michael Earnhart of Chugiak won his second state skiing championship and Quincy Donley of West won her first title Friday at the ASAA state cross-country championships at Government Peak.
Earnhart collected his second victory in as many days by topping the boys 10-kilometer freestyle race by 12.3 seconds.
Donley became a first-time state champ by winning the girls 7.5K race by 6.6 seconds.
Skimeister titles went to Earnhart and Service High’s Meredith Schwartz, the winner of Thursday’s classic race and the third-place finisher in the skate race.
