Program History

The Babson men's and women's ski programs have been in existence for 24 years. During that time, the men's team has advanced to the regionals 14 times, won six division titles, made USCSA national appearances in 1990, 2005, and 2006, and had an NCAA qualifier in 1999. The women's squad has qualified for the regionals on 11 occasions, won seven division titles, and made appearances in the nationals in 1991, 1996, and 1997. In addition, the program has produced NCAA National qualifier Chad Isaacs '99, five-time All-American Michele Steinrotter '98, and five-time All-American Carson Thurber '06, who were each honored as Babson's Athletes of the Year during their respective careers.

The Beavers have continued to dominate in recent years, as the men's team has qualified for regionals in four of the last five seasons. After narrowly missing a bid to nationals in 2003 and 2004, Babson finally advanced to the USCSA Championships in 2005, where they finished ninth overall. The Beavers then earned their second straight bid to nationals in 2006, where they placed sixth in the country -- the best finish in program history.
