BOUDLER—Filip Forejtek was named the National Men's Alpine Skier of the Year, the United States Collegiate Ski Coaches Association announced on Friday.

Forejtek won the individual National Championship in giant slalom at the NCAA Championships and picked up two All-America honors with a top 10 slalom finish, capping a stellar season for the Buffs.

In 2022, he won three races, becoming just the fourth men's alpine skier since 1995 to win a race in both disciplines in a season and was in the top 10 in all 10 of his finished races this season, picking up five podium appearances and seven top five finishes.
