ALEX LAURETANO IN OUR WORLD CUP INTERVIEW SPOTLIGHT

Alex Lauretano USA - an outstanding athlete

In the past year, three-event Waterskier Alex Lauretano USA has been one of the most consistent performers of the season. This is no coincidence. This third generation Lauretano athlete was born in Bristol, Connecticut in 1988. At just 17 years of age, she was already the Can Am Slalom, Tricks, Jump and Overall Champion. In 2006, she moved on to be the Junior US Masters Jump Champion plus the USA National Jump, Trick and Overall Champion. In 2008, she took the U21 Pan Am Trick, Jump, Slalom and Overall titles – plus the title of the World University Tricks Champion. It is hard to believe that Alex has still not reached the age of 21 with so much success achieved. Her long hours of training with Jack Travers, Matt Rini, Chet Raley, Freddy Krueger and others has certainly paid off. Now that she has arrived in the Open Division, we know that we will see a lot more of the talented Alex Lauretano on the World Cup podium in the seasons ahead.
