BOZEMAN & BIG SKY, Mont.—The University of Colorado ski team sits in fourth place after the first day and at the midpoint of the 2014 Montana State Invitational Saturday here at Big Sky Resort and Briggs Ranch.
Denver dominated the first day of racing with individuals winning each of the four races while running up a score of 391 points, 120 more than both New Mexico and Utah, who are tied for second with 271 points. The Buffs are 20.5 points behind the Lobos and Utes with 250.5 points with Alaska Anchorage (219) and Montana State (213) each hit the 200-point mark, as well.
“We survived our GS day, not just survived but had a good day,” CU coach Richard Rokos said. “Things are slowly coming along; Denver with their class and training schedule has been on the hill a lot more than we have. With almost three weeks between now and our next meet, I’m confident things will keep getting better.”
