CARRABASSETT VALLEY, Maine—The Babson College women's alpine ski team came in fifth in the slalom and finished in a three-way tie for second place in the combined standings at the United States Collegiate Ski and Snowboard Association (USCSA) Eastern Regional Championships on Sunday afternoon at Sugarloaf Mountain. 

Following Saturday's runner-up showing in the giant slalom, the Beavers came in fifth behind Castleton, Maine-Farmington, UConn and Northeastern in Sunday's slalom, which was shortened to just one run because of dangerous course conditions. Castleton repeated as regional champions, while Babson, Maine-Farmington and Northeastern all secured their spot at the USCSA National Championships by tying for second place. 

Sophomore Sonnie Travis (Park City, Utah) posted the top time of the day for the Green and White placing fifth in 35.29. First-year Camryn Knowlton (Montreal, Quebec) finished 12th with a time of 36.61 and sophomore Ava Butler (Goshen, Conn.) and senior Alli Messier (Sherborn, Mass.) were separated by just 0.02 seconds in 23rd and 24th position. 

Morrison placed fourth in both the GS and slalom on the way to finishing fourth overall in the combined standings. Knowlton finished ninth, Butler was 19th and senior Amelie Alkier (Collingwood, Ontario) and Messier placed 47th and 54th, respectively. 

Babson will return to action at the USCSA National Championships, which begin on March 10 at Mount Bachelor in Bend, Ore.
