NCAA skiing championships


The NCAA Skiing Championships are held annually to crown the National Collegiate Athletic Association combined men's and women's team skiing champion. Before 1983, the championship was only for men's skiing. Unlike many NCAA sports, only one National Collegiate championship is held each season with teams from Division I, Division II, and Division III competing together.
The University of Denver has won a record 24 team titles, including ten since 2000. The University of Colorado is second with 20 titles, and the University of Utah is third with 16 .
Denver won the first NCAA championship in 1954 at Reno with 384 points, 34.4 points ahead of runner-up Seattle University. The scoring system has been modified over the years; in 2012, Vermont scored a record 832 points, with a record margin of 161 points over second-place Utah.
The 2020 edition started on schedule, but was canceled in progress due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
