KICKIN’ IT
St. Lawrence Alpine Ski Team captain
has a leg to boot BY C.J. FEEHAN
Matt Dodge, captain of the St. Lawrence Alpine Ski Team, has posted a
series of top- 20 giant slalom results on the EISA circuit, but the greatest athletic risk he ever took was far removed from the mountain. In his sophomore
year at the university, with absolutely no experience playing the sport, Dodge
walked on to the Division 3 football team as a place kicker — and then held
onto the starting job for two consecutive years.
Matt Dodge scores points as an
alpine racer…
…and as a place kicker.
