May 14th marked the end of finals for the spring semester at USC so a few of us used our study days to go up and goof around for one last time in Mammoth (and study of course). Here is our edit from our final days in Mammoth.







We hope you all have a great summer. Check back for summer updates as the team members go on trips and camp-outs!

For incoming freshman, we look forward to having you on the team, feel free to email the officers to find more about the team.

The weekend of April 12 & 13 marked the last SCCSC race weekend of the season. Competitions included slopestyle and skier/boarder cross events. USC took home 4 top 8 spots in skier/boarder X and had 8 participants in the slopestyle event. Chris Farro and Alex Clarey of USC took home first and second place for skier slopestyle.

We're all friends on the SCCSC!

Thanks to UCSB for hosting a great tailgate and party. Getting everyone together on a sunny afternoon was definitely a good time.

We had a great season and are looking forward to next year already.

Next year we'll have clips of the week, so we thought we'd start now with a video recap of the weekend.

Enjoy!

Hey everyone, thanks for coming out to the meeting to show your support for the team and the officers.

Let me give a big congratulations to all those who ran and want to be a part of the team. We'll be implementing some new things next year so we'll have plenty of ways people can get involved with the running of the team.

Here are the new officers for the 2008/2009 year -

President: Kristen Kamei
Ski Vice President: Alex Clarey
Snowboard Vice President: Mark Leffingwell

Congrats to all and we hope you guys are stoked for another great year next year.

That being said there are still 3 weeks remaining. If you aren't going to Vegas the last weekend you will need to head up there over the next 2 weeks and grab all of your stuff.

There is a meeting tomorrow (Tuesday, April 1st) at 8pm in the Cardinal room at the Lyon center.

Agenda is

I want to remind everyone that team meetings are mandatory. I realize

This is a reminder that there is a team meeting on Tuesday, February 5th at 8pm in the Lyon Center Cardinal Room. We want to remind everyone that team meetings are mandatory and we want all of you to make your best efforts to make it out. We will be discussing several issues and giving an update on the season thus far and what we can expect for the remainder of the season.

Thanks and we'll see you this week!

The USC ski and snowboard team has been out on the Mammoth slopes working hard and giving the SCCSC league all we've got. Some new faces on the team this year are proving to rack in serious points to get USC the rank it wants by the end of the year. Pictured above are USC racers Sam Kislevitz, Alex Clarey, Mike Chen, and Adam Kleinart gearing up for a morning of shredding thegiant slalom race course.

This year we have been fortunate enough to get pounded with snow all throughout the month of January while keeping the races going strong when the storms subside. It's just about halfway through the race season and the team is still amped and ready to rock the last 4 race weekends, which last through the end of March. If anyone is interested in attending a race at Mammoth, the ski & snowboard team welcomes it and would always love to see the support. Please contact us uscsnowsports@gmail.com for the remaining times and locations of races on the hill.
