On a day where the NFL was drafting its 2021 class, CMC head coach Scott Tanner was busy putting together his roster for the next powerhouse ski team in the Rocky Mountains.
Tanner has coached ski racers in Colorado for the past 25 years initially for Team Breckenridge in Summit County and then for the Steamboat Spring Winter Sports Club. He’s been head coach at CMC since 2018.
