  • 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.

NW Briefs | Second-place jump for UW's Frederick FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Washington senior Norris Frederick earned his sixth career All-American honor with a career-best second-place finish in the men's long jump Friday on Day 1 of the NCAA indoor track and field championships. Frederick's second attempt of 26 feet, 2 ¾ inches was the second-best of his career. Cal State Northridge's Reindell Cole turned in a 26-7 ¾ to win the event. Washington State freshman Ebba Jungmark won the women's high jump with a clearance of 6-2 ¼. It was the second-best women's high jump in WSU history. Softball Ashlyn Watson hit a two-run home run and Alicia Blake went 3 for 3 to lead No. 20 Washington (17-6-1) past Northern Illinois 4-1 in the Cascade Clash in Portland. The game, which was delayed by an hour due to rain, was stopped after five innings due to poor field conditions. • Erin Martin (9-0) sat down all 15 batters she faced, and Seattle University pounded out 10 hits in the first three innings to cruise to a 12-0 victory over Northwest Nazarene in Nampa, Idaho.
