...downhill, getting disqualified in the combined after taking the lead and not finishing the super-G. Lindsey Kildow wishboned her skis during a terrifying practice-run crash in the women's downhill and was air-lifted to a hospital in Torino. Miraculously, she raced two days later but finished eighth. Only the surprise winner of the combined slalom-downhill event, Ted Ligety, sparked the U.S. ski team, which had labeled itself "Best in the World."

Vermont won the carnival, posting 815.0 points to overcome second-place Middlebury College (788.0) and the Big Green (747.0). The Crimson finished with 256.0 points, tallying just over half the score of eighth-place St. Lawrence (504.0). Harvard’s best events as a team were also ninth-place finishes, in the men’s and women’s slaloms and the women’s 5000-meter classic. Freshman Jake Segal accomplished the Crimson’s top individual performance...
