SALT LAKE CITY - The Utah ski team was among the top academic teams in the Utah athletic department for the fall 2015 semester. The women's team achieved a 3.708 team grade point average, ranking second among all teams and just .011 points behind gymnastics. The men's ski team earned a combined 3.516 grade point average.
"We had an extremely positive fall period with conditioning as well as early training camps and race starts, and it does not surprise me that our academic achievements are right on par," Utah Director of Skiing Kevin Sweeney said.
