Nordic team leads CU Buffs to victory in New Mexico Invitational

Backed by a sweep of the men's and women's 5K classic events, and an individual slalom race victory by junior Nora Christensen on the alpine side, the Colorado ski team claimed a 6½-point victory at the New Mexico/Drew Judycki Memorial/Jade Enterprises Invitational on Sunday.

The CU women's Nordic team placed four finishers inside the top five of the standings of the 5K classic held at Crested Butte to give them a 19-point margin of victory in the race. It was a bit closer on the men's side, but with three Buffalo finishers in the top six, Colorado won the men's race by a four-point margin over Utah.
