  • USA Olympic Curling Team Team Shuster
    2018 Olympic Gold Medal Curling Team 2018 Gold Medal USA Olympic Curling Team Team Shuster Joe Polo, John Landsteiner, Matt Hamilton, Tyler George, John Shuster Team Shuster’s Road To Gold John Shuster is the kind of guy everyone wants to see succeed but his road to success has not been without a few bumps along the way. After a disappointing ninth place finish in Sochi, USA Curling held a combine for the country’s best curlers, meant to identify 10 athletes who would be asked to be on the high performance team. When the team was announced, Shuster’s name wasn’t on the list. The three-time Olympian was crushed. Jilted by the governing body, denounced by fans during the Sochi Games, Shuster was at a common crossroads in sports and in life: accept defeat and find something else to do or work even harder and earn his spot back on the team. He did what great competitors do. He reached down deep and put together a team of his peers that were also cast aside and got back to work at the rink. “People coined us Team Rejects,” he told the West Fargo Pioneer. Soon enough, the rejects started to win. First, they won the 2015 national championship, defeating all those who had made the USA Curling Team. Team Shuster went on to finish fifth at the world championships later that year. After Team Shuster’s success, USA Curling saw the promise and brought all four members of Team Shuster back into the fold. The results kept on coming for Team Shuster: a bronze medal at the 2016 World Championships, the U.S.

    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2018 Remarks Honoring the 2018 United States Olympic and Paralympic Teams April 27, 2018 The President. Well, thank you very much. This is a very proud day, and I'm thrilled to stand here and welcome Team U.S.A. to the White House. Great job. Thank you very much. What a job. So, 2 months ago, America sent each of you to the Winter Olympics to represent the Red, White, and Blue. And you did an awfully good job of doing it, I will tell you. I think she's more famous than I am. [Laughter] Great job. You performed and you made us very proud. And many of you came home as champions wearing a bronze, silver, or a gold medal. And you had very big crowds. And I have to say, without certain backing, those crowds were not looking good. But all of a sudden, those crowds got very, very big, very powerful, and it became a very, very successful Olympics aside from everything else. They had a lot more people show up than they thought. And you think you know why, right? But a lot of good things are happening right now over there, literally as we speak. And the Olympics really helped to bring it all together. It was a big help. So just in that respect, it was something very terrific. Through sheer drive and dedication and commitment, you've risen to the top of your fields and the highest levels of your sports. You overcame setbacks, you powered through obstacles, and you never, ever quit.

Scotland’s David Murdoch was always in control against Sweden’s Niklas Edin and eventually, after blanking five ends, delivered a hack-weight tap-out of a Swedish counter to leave another of his stones lying shot for a 3-2 win. Later Switzerland’s Mirjam Ott edged out Norway’s Marianne Rørvik to start her campaign with a 6-4 win. Elsewhere in the men’s opening session, Germany’s Andy Kapp had an 8-5 win over Ulrik Schmidt’s Danish team, thanks largely to a score of three in the second end, while Thomas Dufour led France to a 6-5 win over Italy’s Stefano Ferronato. The other two games in the men’s opening round both went to extra ends, with Finland’s Toni Rantamäki taking the single needed to beat Jiri Snítel of the Czech Republic by 9-8, as did Thomas Ulsrud of Norway against Switzerland’s Ralph Stöckli for his 8-7 win. In the women’s games, Germany’s Andrea Schöpp took an early three against Sweden’s reigning Olympic champion Anette Norberg and held off the second-half Swedish pressure to win by 7-4.

  • The Evolution of Curling Analytics
    The Evolution of Curling Analytics Kevin Palmer, Gerry Geurts and Jason Gunnlaugson CurlingZone Paper ID 13281 1. Introduction Simple in concept but actually quite complex, curling is often called “chess on ice”. Like innings in baseball, curling takes place over “ends” (8 or 10). Each end comprises of 16 shots, with each shot a decision point in the contest. In a 10-end game the captain of each team, known as the “skip”, makes 80 decisions. This makes for 160 decisions between two teams. In many cases the decision is universally accepted, but very often there can be disagreement on the correct called shot and one poor choice can turn the course of the game. Because of the way curling is played, each decision can be examined using analytics. What is the chance my teammate will successfully execute this shot? What will my opponent likely do next? What are the conditions of the ice and how will that effect our chance of making this shot and each subsequent shot? Based on the outcome of my decision, what is my probability of winning the game? Given the shot-by-shot structure of curling, many would consider statistical analysis as both desired and perhaps necessary for success. This is traditionally not the case. Curling is a game steeped in tradition, where parents and grandparents pass on experience to the next generation. In many instances, some of the best teams in the world stop and consider several options (while a chess timer is ticking away) when pre-planning could help clarify the correct decision much faster.
