Nevada’s ski team has one of the most storied histories of any team at the school. The team was created in 1936 with the help of Wayne Poulsen, the founder of Squaw Valley USA resort and ski area. Since its inception, the ski team has hosted the NCAA’s first downhill skiing champion (Pat Meyers), won a national championship and had numerous All-Americans.
