CU’s 27-year head coach believes UNM’s reinstatement can help swing the momentum to aid in the growth of intercollegiate skiing
BOULDER — Major news in the intercollegiate skiing world came out of Albuquerque Thursday where the University of New Mexico Board of Regents voted to overturn the Athletic Department's recommendation to cut the Lobo ski team.
After an outcry of support for the UNM program, which won a national championship in 2004 and has captured 17 individual NCAA titles in program history, the team will be reinstated for the 2017-18 season.
This is big news for not only the Lobo community, but for CU, the RMISA and the health of intercollegiate skiing in general.
