The good news is the Nordic team should be a full strength for the remainder of the season when the schedule resumes in early February. However, the alpine portion of the meet should see the Buffs move up a bit and with a good showing, move up more than a few spots is possible.

Unfortunately for the Buffs, she was the only top 10 finisher and with just two men in attendance, the Buffs fell two spots to sixth at the conclusion of the Nordic portion of the meet.
