He skied in 10 races in all, finishing eight of them, all in the top 10 with five top-five finishes that included three podium appearances and a race win. He opened the season on a heater, taking two podiums in the first two races, both slalom races at Loveland, the first a qualifier race and the second part of the DU Invitational. He then took fifth in the GS race as part of the DU Invitational. He took ninth in a slalom race in Montana and then went to Utah, where he took home fifth in the GS qualifier there before picking up his first collegiate win in the GS race as part of the Utah Invitational. He didn’t ski in Alaska for the final regular season meet or the RMISA Championships, but he returned for the NCAA championships, where he finished 10th in the slalom and seventh in the GS, bringing home second-team All-America honors in both races. He was also named second-team All-RMISA, was the RMISA Skier of the Meet for the RMISA Qualifiers, and given the team’s Buddy Werner Award at season’s end.
