Park City, UT (May 15, 2025) - U.S. Ski & Snowboard officially announces the 12 athletes who have been nominated to the 2025-26 Stifel U.S. Para Alpine Ski Team across all classifications and disciplines. 

The U.S. Ski & Snowboard Team announces its teams in two phases: nomination and acceptance. The athletes are formally nominated to the Stifel U.S. Para Alpine Ski Team in May. Pending their acceptance of the nomination and adherence to the team expectations outlined in team criteria, athletes will be officially announced to the team in September 2025. 

Heading into a Paralympic season in Milan Cortina, the team is highlighted by Paralympic gold medalist Andrew Kurka, two-time Paralympian and Paralympic silver medalist Thomas Walsh and established up-and-comers Andrew Haraghey and Audrey Crowley. Crowley wrapped up her 2024-25 season with a World Championship bronze medal and multiple U.S. Championship titles. 

New to the team this year is Kelsey O’Driscoll, who came onto the scene last season and made it her own, finishing top-five at World Championships. Joining her are Saylor O’Brien and Tyler McKenzie, who made huge impacts on the World Cup circuit during the 2024-25 season with multiple World Cup podiums..
