Back-to-Back Champions! Chelan Goats Capture the 2025-2026 Caribou Cup
The Caribou Cup is staying exactly where it belongs! For the second consecutive year, the Chelan Goats have proven their overall athletic dominance, officially claiming the 2025-2026 Caribou Cup All-Sports Trophy.
What is the Caribou Cup?
The Caribou Cup is the ultimate measure of all-around athletic excellence in the Caribou Trail League (CTL). It is awarded annually to the school that performs the best across the board in league competition.
Here is how the scoring works:
1st Place (CTL Champion): 3 points
2nd Place (Runner-Up): 2 points
3rd Place: 1 point
To ensure fairness across different athletic programs, the total points are divided by the number of CTL sports each school participates in to calculate a final average score. The school with the highest average keeps the coveted traveling trophy for the following school year.
By the Numbers: A Dominant Year for the Goats
Chelan’s student-athletes left no doubt this year, putting together a stellar campaign from the fall all the way through the spring.
Competing in 17 different league sports, the Goats racked up a massive 40 total points, finishing with a first-place average of 2.35. That impressive score comfortably outpaced both Cascade (32 points, 2.00 average) and Omak (28 points, 1.75 average).
A huge key to Chelan's back-to-back title was their sheer volume of league championships. Earning 3 points requires finishing at the very top of the CTL, and the Goats secured first place in an incredible nine different sports:
Volleyball
Boys Basketball
Boys Wrestling
Baseball
Softball
Boys Tennis
Girls Tennis
Boys Golf
Girls Golf
In addition to these championships, consistent runner-up finishes in Cross Country (Boys and Girls), Girls Basketball, Girls Wrestling, and Boys Track ensured that Chelan's average remained untouchable.
The Trophy Stays Home
Winning a league title in a single sport is incredibly difficult, but fielding highly competitive teams across 17 different sports requires exceptional dedication from the entire athletic department including, student athletes, coaches, fans and our community.
Congratulations to all the athletes, coaches, parents, and fans who contributed to this incredible achievement. The traveling trophy will proudly remain in the trophy case at Chelan High School for the 2026-2027 school year.
Go Goats!
