From St. Moritz, Switzerland<\/strong><\/p>\n

The USA took gold in almost everything it could last year in Lake Placid. \u00a0This year gold has been a little harder to come by, but the team competitions gives the Americans their first.<\/p>\n

The team competition started off slow for USA-1, with John Daly not quite getting the start he needed and USA-1 winding up 7th behind strong German and Canadian efforts in men’s skeleton. \u00a0Great Britain also had a strong run by Dom Parsons for GBR-2, but the second British team had to withdraw due to technical problems with their women’s bobsled.<\/p>\n

The women’s bobsled program was where things began to come to life for USA-1. \u00a0Elana Meyers and Lolo Jones finished third behind Sandra Kirasis and world champion Kaillie Humphries, moving the US up to fourth after two heats.<\/p>\n

Women’s skeleton is where USA-1 made their move. \u00a0Noelle Pikus-Pace put down a time that would score her in the top 10 of most men’s competitions and placed over .6 ahead of Germany-1, who had an uncharacteristically slow run by Marion Thees, almost a second and a half behind Pikus-Pace.<\/p>\n

The final run, two-man bobsled, was mostly a victory lap for Steven Holcomb. \u00a0Holcomb, who had narrowly missed a medal in two-man earlier in the day, had a steady run down the 1722 meter track to hold off world champion Francesco Friedrich and GER-1, who had to take silver. \u00a0CAN-1 overtook the second German effort in two-man to take bronze.<\/p>\n

The second USA effort was led by a solid skeleton run by Katie Uhlaender, but inconsistent runs throughout the race led to an eighth place finish. \u00a0CAN-2 was as high up as fourth, but had to settle for a sixth place finish, while the Great Britain effort finishes seventh.<\/p>\n
