Klomhaus and Kogler both earned First Team All-American honors in the giant slalom along with Simon Fournier. Amelia Smart was named a Second Team All-American in the giant slalom.
LeRoy led the Pioneers to their 24th overall NCAA Championship in 2018 and sixth in his tenure. Alpine skiers have registered 21 individual National Championships during his 14 years.

A former alpine skier at CU, LeRoy was a First Team All-American and individual national champion in the slalom at the 2000 NCAA National Championships and named CU Athlete of the Year that same year.
