"Creating Champions in Ski racing and life." - Erich Sailer

Buck Hill Ski Racing Team Alumni

In keeping with the tradition, the Buck Hill Ski Racing Team continues to develop champions under the philosophies and teachings of Erich Sailer. 

The Buck Hill Ski Racing Team has created more champions than any other program in the Central Division and arguably the nation. 

Over the years, Buck Hill Ski Racing Team athletes have gone on to earn college scholarships, national titles, NCAA titles, win World Cups, named to the U.S. Ski Team, and competed in the Olympic games and gone on to win Olympic gold.
