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 threetime 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. 1973 Mark Ford 1988 Fritz Schlopy 2004 Tahir Bisic 1974 John Elliott 1989 Ian Witter 2005 Erling Christiansen 1975 Helge Aamodt 1990 Ian Witter 2006 Lucie Zikova 1976 Marc Milligan 1991 Toni Standteiner Kit Richmond 1977 Helge Aamodt 1992 Eric Archer 2007 Stefan Hughes 1978 Sigurd Kjerpeseth 1993 Sean Ramsden 2008 Lucie Zikova 1979 Tom Holmen-Jensen 1994 Greg Buchheister 2009 Gabriel Rivas 1980 Gary Miller 1995 Bryan Sax 2010 Katie Hartman 1981 Bjorn Gjelsten 1996 Ryan Webb 2011 Reid Pletcher 1982 Seth Bayer 1997 Geoff Buchheister 2012 Adam Zika 1983 Niklas Scherrer 1998 Ryan Webb 2013 Rune Oedegaard Garrett Walker 1999 Josh Nolting 2014 Mad Stroem 1984 James Marceau 2000 Andy LeRoy 2015 Rune Oedegaard 1985 Matt Lyons 2001 Chad Wolk 2016 Henrik Gunnarsson Reid Pletcher as he wins the 2011 1986 John Skajem 2002 Tyler Shepherd 2017 David Ketterer NCAA men’s classic title 1987 John Skajem 2003 Jed Schuetze 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.” 1991 Andreja Rojs 2003 Michael Read 2015 Shane McLean 1992 Mike Quas 2004 Erling Christiansen 2016 Jessica Honkonen 1993 Mike Trueblood 2005 Rachel Roosevelt Roger Carry 1994 Bryan Sax 2006 Nick Sterling 2017 Bobby Moyer 1995 Tiit Pekk 2007 Rachel Roosevelt 1996 Jessica Ochs 2008 Josh Smith Geoff Buchheister 2009 Matt Gelso 1997 Greg Buchheister Josh Smith 1998 Aimee-Noel Hartley 2010 Reid Pletcher Rachel Roosevelt 1999 Ryan Webb 2011 Katie Hartman 2000 Casey Ward 2012 Katie Hartman 2001 Maria Wik 2013 Mary Rose 2002 Muriele Huberli 2014 Clare Wise RMISA CHAMPIONS: 1959, '60, '62, '63, '69, '72, '73, '74, '75, '76, '78, '79, '79, '86, '91, '93, '94, '95, '99, 2000, '02, '06, '08, '10, '11, '13, '15, '17 96 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS: 1959, '60, '72, '73, '74, '75, '76, '77, '78, '79, '82, '82, '91, '95, '98, '99, 2006, '11, '13, '15 TEAM AWARDS The Outstanding Alpine Woman 1980 Toni Leuthold 1996 Caroline Gedde-Dahl 2012 Erika Ghent 1981 Tiania Tutt 1997 Kate Davenport 2013 Brooke Wales 1982 Lee Sevison 1998 Caroline Gedde-Dahl 2014 Jessica Honkonen 1983 Kelly Reynolds 1999 Aimee-Noel Hartley 2015 Thea Grosvold 1984 Brenda Buglione 2000 Jenni Wolk 2016 Tonje Trulsrud 1985 Beth Madsen 2001 Mia Cullman 2017 Nora Christensen 1986 Linda McGehee 2002 Mia Cullman 1987 Bente Bjornsen 2003 Mia Cullman 1988 Kerry Corcoran 2004 Erika Hogan 1989 Shauna Fisher 2005 Lucie Zikova 1990 Heidi Hager 2006 Lisa Perricone 1991 Jennifer Barrett 2007 Lucie Zikova 1992 Andreja Rojs 2008 Rachel Roosevelt 1993 Hana Pochobradska 2009 Carolina Nordh Mia Cullman 1994 Andreja Rojs 2010 Erika Ghent 1995 Jessica Ochs 2011 Erika Ghent The Outstanding Nordic Woman 1980 Muffy Ritz 1994 Amy Ireland 2008 Lenka Palanova 1981 Lynda Walters 1995 Eva Orvosova 2009 Alexa Turzian 1982 Toni Jorgensen 1996 Kelly McCann 2010 Eliska Hajkova 1983 Toni Jorgensen 1997 Eva Lowe 2011 Joanne Reid 1984 Lynda Walters 1998 Line Selnes 2012 Eliska Hajkova 1985 Kristen Petty 1999 Unni Odegard 2013 Eliska Hajkova 1986 Kristen Petty 2000 Katka Hanusova 2014 Camilla Brautaset 1987 Kristen Petty 2001 Mari Storeng 2015 Maja Solbakken 1988 Julie Southwell 2002 Mari Storeng 2016 Petra Hyncicova 1989 Julie Southwell 2003 Jana Rehemaa 2017 Christina Rolandsen 1990 Julie Southwell 2004 Jana Rehemaa 1991 Anette Skjolden 2005 Muriele Huberli 1992 Anette Skjolden 2006 Maria Grevsgaard Jana Rehemaa 1993 Anette Skjolden 2007 Maria Grevsgaard The Spencer Nelson Award The Lucie Hanusova Award Given in the spirit of the former CU skier who lost his life just The ability to overcome adversity and challenges with smiles and enthusiasm. prior to his sophomore season at CU in August 2011, is awarded 1980 Muffy Ritz 1993 Anette Skjolden 2006 Maria Grevsgaard annually by Spencer’s parents, Peter Nelson and Peggy Smith. 1981 Lynda Walters 1994 Amy Ireland 2007 Maria Grevsgaard It is given to those who overcome adversity and demonstrate a 1982 Toni Jorgensen 1995 Eva Orvosova 2008 Lenka Palanova strong work ethic 1983 Toni Jorgensen 1996 Kelly McCann 2009 Alexa Turzian 1984 Lynda Walters 1997 Eva Lowe 2010 Eliska Hajkova 2013 Shane McLean 2016 Ane Johnsen 1985 Kristen Petty 1998 Line Selnes 2011 Joanne Reid 2014 Adam Zika Ola Johansen 1986 Kristen Petty 1999 Unni Odegard 2012 Eliska Hajkova 2015 Richard Rokos 2017 Petter Reistad 1987 Kristen Petty 2000 Katka Hanusova 2013 Eliska Hajkova Bruce Cranmer 1988 Julie Southwell 2001 Mari Storeng 2014 Camilla Brautaset 1989 Julie Southwell 2002 Mari Storeng 2015 Maja Solbakken 1990 Julie Southwell 2003 Jana Rehemaa 2016 Petra Hyncicova 1991 Anette Skjolden 2004 Jana Rehemaa 2017 Christina Rolandsen 1992 Anette Skjolden 2005 Muriele Huberli The Outstanding Career Performance Award 2006 Erling Christiansen Katie Hartman Adam Zika Henrik Hoye Vegard Kjoelhamar Henrik Gunnarsson 2008 Lucie Zikova Taggart Spenst Clare Wise Kit Richmond 2013 Eliska Hajkova Kasper Heitanen 2009 Maria Grevsgaard Max Lamb Jessica Honkonen 2010 Matt Gelso Joanne Reid 2017 Mads Stroem 2011 Jesper Ostensen 2014 Andreas Haug Carolina Nordh Andreas Hoye Gabriel Rivas 2015 Brooke Granstrom, Alexa Turzian Rune Oedegaard Spencer Nelson 2012 Erika Ghent 2016 Thea Grosvold 34 OLYMPIC ATHLETES •52 OLYMPIC APPEARANCES • 20 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS •94 INDIVIDUAL NCAA CHAMPIONS 12 NATIONAL SKIING HALL OF FAME MEMBERS • 481 ALL-AMERICA HONORS 97 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 men’s skiing with the AIAW women’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. Those members of winning relay teams also earned first-team recognition.
