March 14, 2015 – Colorado wins 20th skiing national championship
It was a one-two finish for the Centennial State as the University of Colorado and the University of Denver battled for the 2015 NCAA Championship in skiing, but the Buffaloes emerged victorious despite just two top-ten finishes on the tournament’s final day. The title marked Colorado’s 20th in school history – 11 men’s, one women’s and eight since the sport went coed in 1983. Head coach Richard Rokos set a school record of eight national titles, passing former ski coach Bill Marolt and current cross country coach Mark Wetmore for the honor.
