The team recorded 19 personal bests in 30 chances; the team skied above and beyond to overcome the University of Texas and 8 other teams.

Notable finishers include:

Kyle Dammeyer - 2nd Place Slalom - 2@38 off

In addition Kyle Dammeyer managed to be the 2nd ever Midwest Skier to make the All-American Team by scoring as high as the top 5 skiers in Division 1. The only other skier to do this is Cale Burdick and is truly an awesome achievement.
