2005 Ski Hall of Fame

UNM’s ski team goes down in history as the first Lobo team to win an NCAA title in the school’s history.

Solid performances from the Alpine and the Nordic teams helped secure the title for UNM at the 2004 NCAA Skiing Championships held in Truckee, California on March 10–13, 2004. Head coach George Brooks said it was a strong team effort that was the key to success. “The reason we won is because everyone contributed,” he said.

The Lobos set a school record with 10 All-Americans at the 2004 NCAA Championships. Jennifer Delich won the NCAA Women’s Giant Slalom Championship. The women’s Nordic team won the NCAA 5K Freestyle title and the men’s Alpine team took home the slalom trophy. In addition, 11 Lobos earned Academic All-American Awards in 2004.
