:USA  Team USA 2018 - Winter Olympics :USA

Curling Preview

 

Men's Team

The U.S. Men's curling team has won 2 bronze medals (1992, 2006) This year it's up in the air where the team will finish. A 3rd or 4th place finish would be great.

The 2018 U.S. Olympic Men's Curling team will be lead by John Shuster who will skip for the team, John has been to three Olympic Games (2006, 2010, 2014) while winning the bronze medal at the 2006 games in Turin (playing in the lead position). Shusters 2014 teammate John Landsteiner and 2006 teammate Joe Polo with both make their second Olympic appearance while Tyler George (vice skip) and Matt Hamilton (second) will make their rookie appearances.

Women's Team

The U.S. Women's Curling team has yet to medal at an Olympics Games. As 4 of the 5 are making their debuts these games might just be a game for Olympic experience.

The 2018 U.S. Olympic Men's Curling team will be lead by two time national champion Nina Roth. All five members will be making their Olympic debuts. Roth is teamed up with Tabith Peterson, Aileen Gevin, Becca Hamilton and Cory Christensen. The team finished fifth at the 2017 World Women's Championship and has had a strong 2017-18 season.

Mixed Doubles

As Mixed Doubles will be making it's Olympic debut it is uncertain where the U.S. team will place.

Matt Hamilton and Becca Hamilton won the 2018 U.S. Mixed Doubles Team Trials, they will be competing in this event and along with their respected Men and Women team event.

P.S. This is my first real post on Totallympics so I hope it's good enough. I'll try and finish all the previews before the games start!

:USA  Team USA 2018 - Winter Olympics :USA

Luge Preview

 

Men's Singles

Out of the 3 men Tucker and Chris are the most likely to medal at these games but the chances of that are unlikely. 

 

Taylor Morris

This will be Taylor's Olympic debut. Taylor has won a bronze medal in Lake Placid World Cup sprint race this season. Taylor is currently ranked 28th in the World.

This will be Chris's 3rd Olympic games after finishing 13th in 2010 and 13th in 2014. Chris is currently ranked 22nd in the World.

 

 Women's Singles

These Women's Singles have a good chance at getting a medal at these Olympic games as long as we keep up with the Germans. 

 

Summer Britcher

This will be Summer's 2nd Olympic games after finishing 15th in 2014. Summer is coming in with a lot of momentum after finishing with a gold medal at Lilliehammer in the World Cup. Summer currently sits 3rd in the 2017-18 Luge World Cup

Doubles

Luge_qualifying_graphic_121517.jpg.857c9ef992f483f1f6959dde2fb033e4.jpg

 

Matt and Jayson could possibly medal at these Olympic Games, they will need to dominate watch out for the Germans.

 

Matt Mortensen & Jayson Terdiman

Both Matt and Jayson will be making their second trip to the Olympics but the last trip they competed with different partners. Terdiman finishing 11th and Mortensen finishing 14th. Matt and Jayson are currently 5th place in the 2017-18 Luge World Cup Season. 

 

Andrew Sherk & Justin Krewson

This will be both Andrew and Justin's first Olympic Games, they are currently ranked 18th in the World Cup standings.

 

Team Relay

The U.S. Relay Team currently sits 4th in the World, so a medal at these Olympics is possible!

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
