ASPEN—Senior Mikaela Tommy won her second straight race to open the 2020 season and the Colorado Ski Team sits in second place after the first day of the Denver Invitational here Saturday at Aspen Highlands Ski Resort.
Behind Tommy's win and sophomore Stef Fleckenstein taking fifth place, a big story of the day was Bobby Ryan finishing sixth on the men's side, a career-best finish for the newcomer from the east. The Buffs won the women's race, edging Utah 85-83 and then the Utes then won the men's race to take the meet lead with 176 points to CU's 153.
