The Montana State ski team will host the Rocky Mountain Intercollegiate Ski Association/NCAA West Regional Championships this weekend at Bridger Bowl and Crosscut Mountain Sports Center.
Racing will start on Thursday, Feb. 27 with a RMISA giant slalom qualifier, followed by the championship races on Friday and Saturday. The giant slalom and Nordic 5/10-kilometer freestyle events will be held Friday, with the slalom and 15/20-km classic races on Saturday.
The University of Utah dominated the RMISA regular-season posting over 700 points in all three invitationals this winter. Montana State's highest total of 518 points came in the season-opener at the Denver Invitational. At DU, the Bobcats placed fourth as the alpine squad racked-up 274 points, while the Nordic team posted a season-high 244 points.
The MSU men's alpine squad has been led this season by Åge Solheim and Louis Muhlen-Schulte. Both skiers rank in the top 10 in slalom and giant slalom in the NCAA qualification points list. Nellie Talbot has the women's top ranking at No. 4 on the slalom chart.
Zanden McMullen and Emma Tarbath guide the men's and women's Nordic contingents. McMullen is listed ninth, while Tarbath ranks tenth in NCAA qualification points heading into this weekend's races.
Both the alpine and Nordic squads will look to add to its NCAA Championship roster this weekend.
