    YEAR-BY-YEAR MEET RESULTS (Excluding Maine State Series)

    Due primarily to weather conditions, the number of meets in which Maine competed varied from seasonto season. It was difficult to locate results of all competitions, especially individual placements, due either to meager media coverage or the scarcity of University records. Those that are shown, however,indicate the high level of competition faced by Maine skiers each season. Maine teams competedannually against the best teams in the East, as well as competing in open meets sponsored by major skiareas. Skiers who finished 20

    th or lower in each event or were the first two finishers (where results could

    be located) are listed in multi-team and winter carnival competitions, and actual places of finish in NCAAor national competitions.

    Abbreviations: AC, alpine combined; CC, cross country; DH, downhill;J, jumping; NC, nordic combined;S, slalom; SR, snowshoe race; SKI, Skimeister; NTS, non-team scoring; WC, winter carnival.

    MAINE STATE SERIES An annual championship meet in men’s skiing involving members of the Maine Intercollegiate AthleticAssociation (Maine State Series) began during the 1920’s on an informal basis. Poor snow conditionsforced cancellation of the meets in 1932-33, 34-35, 35-36, 36-37, 37-38, and 72-73. Also, meets werenot held between 1943 and 1946 due to World War II. Team participation varied from year to year,depending on the availability of qualified skiers at each of the four MIAA institutions. The final meet washeld in the 1973-74 season. Listed are the annual meet championship teams and names of individualchampions from Maine.

    THE CURTIS TROPHY In 1955 directors of athletics of the four State Series institutions (Bates College, Bowdoin College, ColbyCollege, and the University of Maine) established the Theodore S. Curtis Trophy. The trophy wasawarded to the MIAA skiing championship team each season until the conference folded in 1974. It wasnamed in honor of Mr. Curtis, Maine’s Faculty Manager of Athletics and Head Ski Coach for more thanthree decades. Curtis, in 1953, was one of a six-man national committee that organized the first NCAASki Championships. His career accomplishments were many, including organizing the first State ofMaine high school cross country championship meet and organizing and managing the state high schoolbasketball tournaments for many seasons.

    MAINE’S FIRST OLYMPIC SKIERCoach Ted Curtis presents a trophy to Bob Pidacks, captain of the 1950–51 team, in recognition of his selection to the U.S. Olympic team. Pidacks, legendary figure in State of Maine skiing, was the eastern intercollegiate cross country champion and finished first in the Olympic trials in that event.
