Silver Medal for Ben Ogden

Well it's been fifty years since an American male has won an Olympic nordic medal. Bill Koch won silver at the Seefeld Olympics in 1976.

A fantastic day for the entire team, as all four women advanced to the heats, with Julia Kern making it to the finals. Three of our four men advanced to the heats, with JC Schoonmaker making it into the semifinals.

However, Ogden showed great power putting the hammer down on the final big uphill and separating himself from all but Klaebo. Watch out for the team sprints, where he will probably be teamed with Gus Schumacher.
