Hartman was on pace to top her 2008 mark of seven top 10 finishes, but a couple of crashes in the giant slalom left her battling through some back injuries through the middle portion of the season. Despite a few set-backs, Hartman still shined as one of CU’s top female skiers, with six top-10 finishes, including a career-best second place mark in the slalom at the Seawolf Invitational, a mark that stands entering her senior campaign. For the second year in a row she was named to the All-RMISA first team and she entered her first NCAA Championships as the fifth-best women’s alpine skier in the west and was seeded fourth overall in the slalom.

A second-team All-RMISA selection, Hartman easily qualified for the NCAA Championships and could have been a podium contender, but with her being at the Junior Championships and missing so much school, head coach Richard Rokos felt that it would be too difficult for her to compete.

Hartman was a member of Team Summit and was coached by former NCAA Champion and Colorado All-American skier, Sean Ramsden. Hartman participated as one of seven women on the U.S. squad at the 2007 FIS Alpine Junior World Ski Championships in High School — Top Career Slalom Finish: Austria, followed by a ninth-place overall finish at the 2007 US Nationals.

58 CU IN THE NCAA’s

The NCAA first sponsored a men’s national championship in skiing in 1954, though national title meets (National Intercollegiate Championships) were held as early as 1946, the same year CU’s program began. Women’s programs came into being in the late 1970s, with then CU head coach and eventual AD Bill Marolt at the forefront of making it a reality. CU has competed in each of the last 41 NCAA Championships and in 52 of 55 overall. One of those three occasions where CU didn’t qualify (1964), several team members had competed in the Winter Olympics, and in 1967, CU sent only a few skiers to Maine for financial reasons. The old AIAW sponsored women’s titles between 1977-82; in 1983, the NCAA absorbed the AIAW but combined the men’s and women’s competition, as was the case in rifle and fencing. Here’s an in-depth look at the NCAA Championship history of the Buffaloes.

62 NCAA SCORING FORMAT

The current scoring format was adopted for the 1997 NCAA Championships. Citing expenses, the NCAA reduced the number of skiers in the field from over 50 to a maximum of 39 in each discipline. In doing so, the most qualifiers from a single team was cut from 16 to 12. At the same time the method of scoring a meet changed, but affecting only those schools that qualified either full 12-skier of 11-skier teams. To tabulate the final standings, a school’s low three scores are thrown out; thus, a team with 10 or fewer skiers is already counting four or more zeroes toward its team total and are thus unaffected. Teams with full 12-skier rosters drop its lowest three scores, while teams with 11 must drop one score. While every champion since the format was adopted in 1997 has skied with a full team, mathematically it is possible for a team with 11 or even 10 to win.

The Buddy Werner Memorial Scholarship Award The one name synonymous with competitive skiing in America is Buddy Werner, the gritty competitor from Steamboat Springs, Colo. Werner was America’s first international skiing star who began his career at the University of Colorado in 1959. In 1961, he won the NCAA slalom and placed second in the downhill. Two years later, he reversed the order by claiming the downhill title and taking second in the slalom. Werner was a three- time all-American while at CU, was elected to the Skiing Hall of Fame and the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame. He was killed in an avalanche in St. Moritz, Switzerland, April 12, 1964. Werner established a standard for American skiers which still stands as an inspiration today. Because of the example Werner set for young athletes, a scholarship commemorating Buddy was established in 1973 to benefit a deserving team member.

Reid Pletcher The Laura Sharpe Flood Award Each year the University of Colorado skier who best exemplifies the spirit, enthusiasm and dedication, both on the mountain and in the classroom, of Laura Flood will receive the Laura Sharpe Flood Award. Flood tragically lost her life April 3, 1989, after losing control on an early morning training run at Eldora Ski Resort. In her lone NCAA Championship appearance in 1988, Flood finished 12th in the giant slalom and 20th in the slalom. Former coach Tim LaVallee said, “She was a good skier, perhaps not a great one, but her biggest asset was her dedication and commitment.”

68 Colorado All-Americans

The list of Colorado’s all-time All-America skiers; research is sketchy prior to 1969, but coaches generally selected the teams themselves either at the NCAA Championships or shortly after the season was completed. One team, consisting of eight members, was selected until the mid-1960s, when both a first and second team was selected. When the NCAA merged FmIeRnS’sTskTiEinAgMw-iAthLtLh-eAAMIAEWRIwCoAmNeS n’s programs into one combined, coed sport in 1983, the formula became the first through fifth finishers earned first-team honors with the sixth through 10th performers earning second-team honors. 1957 Frank Brown (A,XC) T19h5o8 seFramnkemBrobwenrs(Ao,XfCw) inning relay teams also earned first-team recognition .
