November 07, 2016 – Both NCAA skiing programs in Alaska are close to being cut. Here’s how you can help to keep that from happening. Utah jumps into a commanding lead thanks, in part, to the Wasatch Nordic Ski Academy‘s “Wax for the Drive” event! Minnesota continues to come on strong, and Vermont’s numbers keep going up, up, up!
Thank you to everyone who has supported the Drive for 25 so far. It’s an amazing thing to see the community come together to help our skiers.Donate to the Drive for 25 Cross-Country

The NCAA skiing programs at the University of Alaska Anchorage and the University of Alaska Fairbanks are on the verge of being discontinued after this season, leaving the state of Alaska without any NCAA skiing.
