Andriga Fifth In Moguls
Casey Andringa (Boulder, Colo.) finished fifth in men's freestyle moguls Monday evening at the Phoenix Snow Park at the 2018 Olympic Winter Games.
Andringa qualified for the final round after finishing third in the second qualifying round prior to the finals Monday evening. In the first run of the finals, Andringa placed fifth to advance to the third-run finals.
In the third final run, a bobble on the landing of his second jump proved to be Andringa's undoing as he got a bit into the back seat.
"I really have had such a fun day," said Andringa. "I woke up in this morning and I was like, that's what I want to do today, I want to have fun. Coming to the Olympics you have so many people telling you how it's going to feel and how you should feel about it all. I felt like I had to feel the seriousness and intensity coursing through me. But that's not what this is for me. I decided that the only goal I had for today was to have as much fun as possible and ski as many moguls runs and I could."
Troy Murphy (Bethel, Maine) and Bradley Wilson (Butte, Mont.) also advanced to the finals, finishing 17th and 18th, respectively. Emerson Smith (Dover, Vt.) placed 13th in the second qualifying round and did not advance to the finals. … READ MORE / RESULTS

Anderson Defends Slopestyle Gold
Jamie Anderson (South Lake Tahoe, Calif.), who won the slopestyle snowboarding gold medal in the sport’s Olympic debut at the 2014 Games, battled challenging weather conditions and a stacked field to win gold again Monday at the 2018 Olympic Winter Games.
Blustery conditions caused a delayed start to the event and stymied most of the riders once competition began. Anderson dug deep into her competitive bag of experience and nailed a clean run on her first trip down the Phoenix Snow Park course to score 83.00. She then watched as the field was confounded by the windy conditions.
"I realized coming into this year that it was a lot of pressure to defend the title especially with the level of riding escalating at a crazy rate," Anderson said. "Deep down I knew I could do it. But there were so many variables. When I landed my run, and later knew I had won, I could barely comprehend the emotions." … READ MORE / RESULTS

Kim Leads Halfpipe Qualifying

Maddie Mastro (Wrightwood, Calif.) scored 83.75 on her first run to place fourth, while Kelly Clark (Mt. Snow, Vt.) was 11th (63.25) and Arielle Gold (Steamboat Springs, Colo.) 12th (62.75).

Men’s mogul finals

Jamie Anderson (South Lake Tahoe, Calif.), who won the slopestyle snowboarding gold medal in the sport’s Olympic debut at the 2014 Games, battled challenging weather conditions and a stacked field to win gold again Monday at the 2018 Olympic Winter Games.

Blustery conditions caused a delayed start to the event and stymied most of the riders once competition began. Anderson dug deep into her competitive bag of experience and nailed a clean run on her first trip down the Phoenix Snow Park course to score 83.00. She then watched as the field was confounded by the windy conditions.

But there were so many variables. When I landed my run, and later knew I had won, I could barely comprehend the emotions."

Clean performances were the exception rather than the rule during second runs. The closest anyone could come to challenging Anderson was Laurie Bloun of Canada, whose 76.33 landed her the silver medal. Finland's Enni Rukajarvi, the silver medalist in Sochi, took the bronze medal with a 75.38.

Jessica Jenson (Rigby, Idaho) was fifth, while Hailey Langland (San Clemente, Calif.) was sixth with one of the few clean second runs. Julia Marino (Westport, Conn.) finished 11th.

Anderson’s win, combined with 2014 Olympic champion Sage Kotsenburg, and 2018 men’s gold medalist Red Gerard, means Team USA has won all four Olympic slopestyle events.

Freeski Athletes ‘Thrilled’ to Kick Off Games
The U.S. slopestyle team participated in their arrival press conference Sunday and it was clear that all the athletes are excited for training and competition to commence.
"It's an honor to be here, I'm excited to represent myself, my friends, my family and my country in two events and be the first athlete to do that,” said Sochi silver medalist Devin Logan (West Dover, Vt.). “I'm thrilled and hopefully I can bring home another Olympic medal."
For some, the PyeongChang Olympics are a chance at redemption, including Maggie Voisin (Whitefish, Mont.), who battled an injury at the Sochi Games.
“On the third day of training I fractured my fibula right above my ankle and I was not able to compete, which was one of the most heartbreaking moments of my career,” Voisin said. “I told myself that day four years ago that I was going to do whatever it took to make it back and to be sitting here with these incredible athletes that make up Team USA, I'm honored and ready to represent our country and show the world what we do." Nick Goepper (Lawrenceburg, Ind.) echoed that sentiment looking to improve his performance from the last Olympic games.
"I won a bronze medal in Sochi, and I would be lying if I said that I am not coming into this competition with a small chip on my shoulder," Goepper said.
Competition begins Friday with slopestyle freeskiing at 10:00 a.m. KT / 8 p.m. EST Thursday, with ladies qualifications. Men's competition will take place on February 18th.

Team USA advanced all four athletes to the moguls finals Sunday night after Tess Johnson (Vail, Colo.) won the second qualification run at the Phoenix Snow Park to join her three teammates in this evening's final round.

With heavy snow falling during the second run of the finals, Team USA skied well but came up short with Jaelin Kauf (Alta, Wyo.) just missing out on qualifying for the third final run - finishing seventh. Keaton McCargo (Telluride, Colo.) was eighth, Johnson finished 12th with Morgan Schild (Pittsford, N.Y.) in 15th.

“I rushed a little bit coming out of the air and was a little too eager coming into that first mogul and it just set me up poorly,” said Kauf. “Coming down after my first finals run, I felt like it was the first good run I put down in this competition. I felt really proud of myself in that run. I feel like I could have done more on that second run, but I'm trying to learn from it and move forward.

"We are a strong team, but we're still really young, so I think we are still learning a lot about ourselves and our skiing," Kauf added. "Moving forward in the next few years we'll continue to be really strong.”

"I'm really happy with how I pushed myself tonight and with my overall performance," said McCargo. "It gives me something to build on.

Our team all had the potential to be on the podium tonight, but we all just made little mistakes that cost it. It's super frustrating, but we know in the back of our minds that we are the best and can still be the best. We have four more World Cups to ski, so we can come back and prove that."

Perrine Laffont of France won the gold, as Canada’s Justine Dufour-LaPointe - the defending gold medalist from the 2014 Games - took the silver. Yulia Galysheva of Kazakhstan won the bronze.

“Scott stayed patient early in the race, stayed out of trouble, and picked off skier after skier in front of him during the skate leg,” Grover added. “The USA service team once again made great skis.”

The excitement, the energy on the team right now is fantastic. I couldn’t be prouder of the team. Now the key is to take that energy and harness it, stay relaxed, and then be able to ramp back up.

The event combined two 7.5 km legs, the first skied in the classic style with a second leg raced in the freestyle technique. Diggins was 10th at the halfway transition, 5.4 seconds off the pace. She was able to take 3.3 seconds off that lead by the halfway point of the second leg, but a grueling pace set by Sweden's Charlotte Kalla over the last three kilometers left the field fighting for silver.
Calla covered the 15 km in 40:44.9 to claim the first gold medal of the Games, 7.8 seconds ahead of silver medalist Marit Bjoergen of Norway. Finland's Krista Parmakoski won the bronze medal in 40:55.0. Diggins posted a time of 40:59.6.
Caitlin Patterson (Anchorage, Alaska) finished 34th for Team USA, while Kikkan Randall (Anchorage, Alaska) was 40th; Rosie Brennan (Anchorage, Alaska) was 58th. ...READ MORE/RESULTS

SKI JUMPING
Bickner 18th in Men’s HS109 Finals
Kevin Bickner (Wauconda, Ill.) placed 18th on the men's normal hill in ski jumping competition at the Alpensia Ski Jumping Center Saturday evening - the best U.S. Olympic result since Alan Alborn was 11th in the normal hill at 2002 Olympics.
The Norge Ski Club athlete soared to 14th after his first ride with the second longest jump of the round at 109.0 meters.
"Before I came here my goal was to have a top 20 - I've now achieved that," said Bickner. "Given the day I had, I think I can set my expectations higher. I’ll try to take my first jump tonight and transfer it over to the big hill."
His first jump was a huge motivator for Bickner. "Everything just really worked out," he said. "All the little things I was tweaking through the week came together, I got lucky with wind and I was able to throw one down to the bottom."
Germany's Andreas Wellinger took the win. One of the favored nations, Poland, was shut out of the medals as Norway's Johann Andre Forfan took silver and Robert Johansson bronze.
It was a cold, blustery night on the jumps with wind forcing multiple delays and pushing the competition to past midnight.
Ski jumping continues on Monday, Feb. 12, with the women's normal hill competition, scheduled for 8 p.m. KT/6 a.m. EST. Nita Englund (Florence, Wisc.), Sarah Hendrickson (Park City, Utah) and Abby Ringquist (Park City, Utah) will represent Team USA.
