SALT LAKE CITY – The Utah ski team enters the home stretch of the season with the RMISA Championships and NCAA West Regional, hosted Feb. 23-25 by Colorado in Steamboat Springs.
The meet kicks off with the men's and women's slalom races on Friday, Feb. 23. On Saturday, the Nordic teams compete in the women's and men's 5- and 10-km classic races. The meet concludes on Sunday, Feb. 25, with the men's and women's giant slalom races as well as the 15 and 20-km freestyle races.
Also during the weekend the alpine teams will compete in the season's second RMISA giant slalom qualifier on Saturday, Feb. 24.
