Congratulations to Team Top Out athlete Elizabeth Monti who recently competed at Youth Climbing Nationals in all three disciplines of bouldering, sport, and speed climbing.
This accomplishment is a testament to her dedication, hard work, and passion for the sport. Reaching this level is no small feat, and we couldn’t be prouder of her successes.
Elizabeth had an extraordinary experience at nationals, where she made new friends and created fond memories that she'll remember for the rest of her life. She is motivated to continue training so she can make it back to Nationals next year.
