Men’s Nordic Propels Lobos Into First Place

MSU Invitational (Through Six Events)

BOZEMAN, Mont. --- When it comes to upsets and shocking development in the winter sporting world, there's Team Shuster winning Olympic Gold in the 2018 Olympics when they were just 2-4 and seemingly out of the running, there's the Miracle on Ice from the 2018. It won't make those national headlines, but what UNM's men's Nordic team in Montana is every bit as shocking, and every bit as awesome.

A team featuring four skiers, two of whom generally compete in Nordic combined and the biathlon, finished first, second, fourth and fifth, easily winning the 10K freestyle race at the Montana State Invitational, highlighting the day for New Mexico.
