For Buffs' Rokos, 'Family' Has Always Been Most Important Result

BOULDER — It's never been about the numbers for legendary Colorado Buffaloes ski coach Richard Rokos.

It's been about the process, the family, the atmosphere and environment he has carefully built in his 31 years at the CU helm. It's been about bringing the team and everyone in its periphery together, helping them learn that being part of the whole is really what matters.

The numbers?

They're simply a result of that process — but when you talk about Rokos, you have to talk about the numbers. You can't help but highlight the results that have rewritten the CU record book, numbers that have made Colorado skiing one of the most successful programs in the nation during his tenure and a cornerstone of Buffs athletics.
