The 1963 NCAA Skiing Championships were contested at the Solitude Ski Resort in Big Cottonwood Canyon, Utah at the tenth annual NCAA-sanctioned ski tournament to determine the individual and team national champions of men's collegiate alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, and ski jumping in the United States.[1]
Denver, coached by Willy Schaeffler, captured their seventh, and third consecutive, national championship, again edging out rival Colorado in the team standings.[2]
Jim Page of Dartmouth repeated as Skimeister (all four events). The downhill competition on Friday was a three-way tie, won by Dave Gorsuch of Western State and Colorado's Bill Marolt and Buddy Werner,[3] who reclaimed the alpine combined title he won two years earlier.[4] Future Olympic bronze medalist Jimmie Heuga of Colorado won Thursday's slalom, passing teammates Marolt and Werner in the second run.[5][6]
Venue
This year's championships were held March 21–23 in Utah at Solitude in Big Cottonwood Canyon, southeast of Salt Lake City.[7] The tenth edition, these were the second in Utah and the Wasatch Range; Snow Basin (on Mount Ogden) hosted six years earlier in 1957.
