FAST FACTS
A veteran-heavy team features seven men from the 2025 team's regular carnival lineup and five women who appeared in multiple carnivals ... the Purple Knights sent two qualifiers to the NCAA Championship last season, as 14 Purple and Gold Alpine skiers have combined for 28 NCAA Championship appearances since 2016 ... one of those student-athletes, junior Aidan Robin (Stowe, Vt./Burke Mountain Academy), is among the returners ... four newcomers dot the roster, including sophomore transfer Eulalie Giraud (Les Carroz, France/Lycée du Mont-Blanc René Dayve/Rocky Mountain), the 2025 United States Collegiate Ski and Snowboard Association (USCSA) national champion in the giant slalom and Alpine combined and runner-up in the slalom and skier-cross ... Alpine combined with the Nordic team for four sixth-place carnival performances in 2025, including during the Eastern Intercollegiate Ski Association (EISA) Championship. The College then took 13th at the NCAA Championship, with four student-athletes competing between the Alpine and Nordic squads.
