views from 2983 Ridgetop Rd. Sundance, UTIt was just three weeks into the Viessman World Cup luge season, and on Dec. 13 in Park City, the United States team had its season record of 13 medals in its sights.

On this Saturday night in Park City, both Summer Britcher and Chris Mazdzer both took home the gold — with the Americans tally already up to 11 medals. The team garnered six medals last week in Lake Placid, New York.

Mazdzer, from Saranac Lake, N.Y., had strained his neck during a mid-week weight-lifting session. However, he overcame the pain and posted the fastest final training run at Olympic Park. He took this momentum to the competition and captured his second career singles gold medal.

Later that evening, Britcher and teammate Erin Hamlin replayed their Friday night efforts and took gold and silver in the BMW Sprint World Cup event.

Hamlin recently took medals in four consecutive starts, while Britchers received a bronze and two golds in her last three events. This was the third time this season that U.S. lugers placed first and second in a World Cup race.

Other U.S. lugers who competed included:

Men                                         Place

Tucker West                            9

Taylor Morris                       13

Aidan Kelly                            14

Women                                   Place

Raychel Germaine               8

In the luge doubles competition, Americans Matthew Mortensen and Jayson Terdiman brought a fifth place showing, while Justin Krewson and Andrew Sherk commanded a respectable 8th place, and Jake Hyrns and Anthony Espinoza slid into 14th place.
