Marolt Headlines Golden Anniversary听

In 1990 Bill Marolt (Bus鈥�67) made a bold decision that proved historic: Then CU鈥檚 athletic director, he extended the contract of Buffs football head coach Bill McCartney. The team won its only national championship the next year.

The moment was one of hundreds that defined an illustrious career. Marolt 鈥� a member of the 1964 Olympic U.S. Ski Team with Billy Kidd (Econ鈥�69) and Jimmy Heuga (PolSci鈥�73) 鈥� also served as an Olympic ski coach and as president and CEO of the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association.

This year, he鈥檒l be the keynote speaker at the annual Golden Anniversary Club Breakfast on Friday, Oct. 27, at Folsom Field鈥檚 Touchdown Club. He and the rest of the Class of 1967 will be honored at the event, led by emcee Wayne Hutchens (Mktg鈥�67), former president and CEO of the CU Foundation. All alumni from 1967 and earlier are welcome. The breakfast takes place during Homecoming Weekend, Oct. 26-29.
