Utes claim their 12th NCAA ski championship in dominating fashion

Utah claimed the school's second NCAA skiing championship in three years and third of this century, after taking a commanding lead into Saturday's final competition at Stowe, Vt.

Roni Remme’s second place finish in the women’s slalom helped the Utes secure the combined men’s and women’s title, the program’s 12th NCAA championship and 13th overall, counting an AIAW title.

Utah finished with 530.5 points, followed by Vermont (476), Colorado (455), Dartmouth (447) and Denver (409).

The Utes led second-place Colorado by 65.5 points going into Saturday's Nordic and Alpine races.

Utah's national title is the 517th for the Pac-12 and comes during a school year when the conference has claimed championships in cross country (Colorado), volleyball (Stanford) and water polo (USC).
