DENVER — Colorado freestyle skier Dylan Walczyk went to the Winter Olympics moguls final after a Top 10 finish in the first qualifying round on Thursday.
Walczyk competed in the Men's moguls and finished in 16th place.
Walczyk, 28, of Blue River, placed 10th and took the last qualifying spot for the finals Saturday. Fellow Team USA member Cole McDonald finished fifth.
Walczyk was born in Rochester, N.Y., and his family moved to Summit County so he could pursue his skiing career. He earned a spot on the U.S. Ski Team in the 2013 season by winning at the U.S. Selections event, according to U.S. Ski and Snowboard.
