Colorado Wins a 28th RMISA Championships

MINTURN, Colo. – On a suspenseful day of Nordic freestyle racing at Maliot Park, the 2017 RMISA/NCAA West Regional Championship came down to the final 1.5K.

Colorado's Petra Hyncicova, Anne Siri Lervik and Christina Rolandsen came from behind three Denver Pioneer racers in the final half of a lap to secure a third-, fourth- and fifth-place finish to preserve the championship victory for the Buffaloes by a slim margin of 7.5 points.

It is Colorado's 28th RMISA/NCAA West Regional Championship in school history.

"I'm really happy," head Nordic coach Bruce Cranmer said.
