MARQUETTE, Mich. – NMU’s Alpine Ski Team head coach has been named Coach of the Year by the US Collegiate Ski and Snowboard Association.

Erik Lundteigen was named coach of the year last week. He has guided his teams to a plethora of top-five finishes, produced a National Champion in 2023, and numerous All-Americans in the past four years that the program has been skiing at nationals.

At this year's National Championships, NMU’s men’s team finished third and the women finished 11th of 27 teams, while boasting a combined three First Team All-Americans, five Second Team All-Americans, and a pair of bronze medals.

Hans Ahlström is the host of several programs, including the daily musical variety show Weekday, the mostly straight ahead jazz show Night Studio, the self-explanatory Blues Today, and the eclectic Sound Spectrum. You can also hear Hans as the local host of NPR's All Things Considered news magazine. He also helps manage Public Radio 90's web content, interviews local and visiting writers and artists, works with NMU student interns, and writes the occasional news story.
