Forejtek Wins GS Race To Open Alpine Season; Buffs Move Up To Third

BOULDER, Colo.–Senior Filip Forejtek won his first career giant slalom race and the men's team placed three in the top eight to move the Colorado Buffaloes Ski Team into third place and just 10 points out of second place after the first alpine races of the season Tuesday here at Bridger Bowl in the Montana State Invitational.

Forejtek had the fourth-fastest time in both the first and second runs from the collegiate racers and it was enough to pull out a victory by just 12-hundredths of a second. Sophomore Louis Fausa had the second-best finish of his young career taking fifth place and the top mover of the day was freshman Jacob Dilling, who started in 33rd, had the 17th-fastest first run and then used the third-fastest second run to move into the top 10 in his collegiate debut.
