CU Skiers Slip Into Fifth At Midway Point Of NCAA Championships

Battle For Title Likely Down To Five Teams

STOWE, Vt. — The University of Colorado ski team didn't have as a good a day in the giant slalom races here Thursday as it had hoped, slipping from third into fifth place at the midway point of the 66th annual NCAA Skiing Championships.

But the Buffaloes didn't ski their way out of their hopes for a 21st national title in the sport, either.

On the strength of three finishers in the top four in the men's giant slalom, Dartmouth zoomed from fifth into the team lead with 259 points.
