The final MacConnell Division race awaits for the Clarkson University Alpine Ski team, as the Golden Knights head to Western Massachusetts for a pair of slalom events at Berkshire East Mountain Resort and Catamount Mountain Resort.

MacConnell Division Standings: The Golden Knights' men are currently tied for second in the team standings with the final two races, but have a slight edge in points that would give them the tiebreaker for now. Clarkson's women reside in third after a strong showing this past weekend.

The Women: Sunday was the Green and Gold's best performance of the season, skiing in the giant slalom at West Mountain. Hannah Goetz, who was third last year in the slalom at Berkshire East, has been Clarkson's top skier of 2025, finishing in the top six among MacConnell Division skiers on seven occasions this winter. Goetz currently is fourth in the MacConnell Division individual standings and has locked up a spot as a conference all-star. Ariana Welter has done the same thanks to finishing in the top five at four races, and she is seventh in the league rankings. Kyla Butler (21st) and Kylie Brino (27th) have produced certainty and stability for the Knights all year and are just outside the all-star spots.

The Men: Nine of Clarkson's male skiers rank in the top 30 of the MacConnell Division standings, with three currently in the spots for all-star notice. Edouard Brochu had a pair of DNFs this past weekend, but he still is seventh overall with six top 10 performances in his first collegiate season. He may jump up a few spots in the standings should those DNFs get dropped. Jackson Knobloch has been in the top 15 on seven occasions and is 10th overall, while Reed Martin is tied for 12th on five top 20 finishes. Pedro Gonzalez (17), Josh Jusiak (18), and Noah Marino (19) may be a bit too far down in points to make it into the top 15 this year, but each has enjoyed standout performances thus far in 2025.
