Buffs Kick Off 2026 Ski Season In Lake Placid

Tilde Baangman

The Colorado Buffaloes Ski Team opens the 2026 Nordic season this week with four races at Mt. Van Hovenberg as part of the U.S. Cross Country Skiing National Championships.
The meet serves as the U.S. national championship, not the NCAA Championship, but three of the four races will count toward NCAA Championship qualification. Two of those races will also be scored as part of a generic, Nordic-only Rocky Mountain Intercollegiate Ski Association (RMISA) Invitational.  Click Here for more
