India Sherret of Canada takes home gold in the final day of World Cup ski cross racing. Canadian teammates Hannah Schmidt and Brittany Phelan both crashed during the race but are reported to be okay.
SCHLADMING — India Sherret of Cranbrook, B.C., captured gold Friday, the final day of World Cup ski cross racing competition.
"I am super happy with the win, but ... I am a little bit frazzled. With the two girls that went down, it's hard not to be concerned about them," Sherret said after the race."I saw Brit ski down, but obviously, I am worried about Hannah. Hopefully, they are OK — and after that, I will let myself be happy."
The victory, Sherret's third of the season, moved her into first place in the overall standings, ahead of Germany's Danielle Maier. Teammate Marielle Thompson, of Whistler, B.C., is third.
