Originally the First Year Skimeister Award, this award was established in 1956 in memory of Donald J. Cooke ’57, a former ski team manager who passed away in 1955. Since 1974, the Skimeister title is no longer competed for, so the award is now presented annually by the coaches to the most outstanding cross country and alpine first-year man.
