From Lake Placid, USA<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s been a tough go of it since winning bronze in Sochi for Steven Holcomb. \u00a0The American has struggled through various injuries, but through it all has continued to push to get back to the top. In Lake Placid, he found that rhythm and took gold on home ice.<\/p>\n

Holcomb came into the second run of the two-man bobsled in third, behind strong runs\u00a0by Nico Walther and Yunjong Won, who were .11 \"2manpodium\"<\/a>and .06 ahead of Holcomb, respectively. \u00a0All three had clean runs, but Holcomb’s run was flawless, giving the American his first gold medal of the 2015\/2016 season. Walther and Won finished second and third, while Canadian Justin Kripps finished fourth, Ugis Zalims fifth and American Nick Cunningham sixth.<\/p>\n

Codie Bascue finished 11th for the United States, Chris Spring 12th for Canada, while Lamin Deen was disqualified after coming across the finish line with only himself in the sled.<\/p>\n
