“This is the greatest moment in nordic combined history for the USA,” said Todd Lodwick (Steamboat Springs, CO). “All three of us are psyched to be here. We’re psyched to be here as a team. We’ve persevered over the last 10 years to get to this point. We feel like we’ve earned this silver medal and this spot in history.”
