The Inside Scoop *Event: Alpine Men's February 23 "For sure Ted will be the one to watch here. He proved in 2008 that he's one of the fastest GS guys in the world and he backed that up last season with an incredible second run to take bronze at the World Championships. If he can put together two solid runs, there isn't a guy who can beat him. He will have already raced combined and super G, but this is his race. I'm also excited to see what young Tommy Ford can do. He's from Oregon and is used to this kind of snow. I don't have any expectations for this guy other than him working hard and putting in 100% effort. It will be exciting to see." -Sasha Rearick, Alpine Men's Coach
