Deatrich Wise Jr. Womens Jersey . The 26-year-old Regina native teamed up with Denny Morrison and Mathieu Giroux to win gold in 2010. Makowsky also was 13th in the 5,000 metres and 19th in the 1,500m in Vancouver. He also represented Canada at the 2014 Games in Sochi, helping the pursuit team finish fourth and finishing 28th in the 1,500. "If I continued to skate, I know my heart wouldnt be in it 100 per cent anymore. And if Im not 100 per cent committed, itll be impossible to continue to be the very best that I can," he said in a statement on his website Monday. Derek Rivers Jersey .

Billy Hamilton finished off Cincinnatis biggest comeback of the season for a doubleheader sweep.ST. MORITZ, Switzerland -- Canadas Kaillie Humphries won a womens World Cup bobsled race on Saturday with a dazzling second run, rallying from being only 10th-fastest at the midpoint of the competition. Humphries and Heather Moyse were significantly faster than all other sleds in that second run, posting a final time of 2 minutes, 16.96 seconds to not only win but take over the season-long points lead. Humphries second-run time was 1:08.15, 0.66 seconds better than her opening trip. From there, nine more sleds had a chance to catch Humphries, the reigning Olympic gold medallist -- and everyone fell short. Cathleen Martini and Christin Senkel were second for Germany in 2:17.14, 0.01 ahead of bronze medallists Fabienne Meyer and Tanja Mayer of Switzerland. No U.S. womens sled medaled, the first time this season thats happened. Jamie Gruebel and Emily Azevedo were second after the first heat, but finished fourth, one-tenth of a second away from the podium. "Heather pushed ..... today, and thats what kept us afloat," Humphries said. "She had confidence in me. I came back and tried to drive the very best run I could and it was good enough for today." That was part of a difficult day for the U.S. women, who had only one sled outside of the top 10 in World Cup competition all season entering Saturday -- and had two sleds finish in the bottom half of the field at St. Moritz. Elana Meyers struggled in her first run, then rebounded in her second run but still finished in only a tie for 12th with brakeman Aja Evans. Jazmine Fenlator and Katie Eberling were 17th for the Americans. Humphriess now has 1,237 points in the World Cup season standings, 29 more than Meyers and 43 better than Greubel. Deatrich Wise Jr. Youth Jersey. "Im frustrated," Greubel said. "We set a really high standard at the beginning of the season, so its hard not meeting that. Fourth is a pretty good place to be, but Im still disappointed." It was the next-to-last race before the Americans will choose the six women who will compete in the Sochi Olympics next month, with the drama there expected to be how the U.S. will decide which three push athletes to put on the roster. Summer Olympic veterans Lolo Jones and Lauryn Williams remain in contention for spots and are likely to be back in sleds next weekend at Igls, Austria. And for the U.S. men, the struggles in Europe continued in Saturdays two-man race. After winning all seven races in North America before the holiday break and the tour shifting to European tracks, USA-1 pilot Steven Holcomb managed only a fifth-place showing on Saturday. Holcomb teamed with brakeman Chris Fogt and finished 0.55 seconds off the winning pace set by Switzerlands Beat Hefti and Alex Baumann. Hefti piloted his way to a two-man win for the second straight weekend. Holcomb, however, remained atop the two-man overall points standings. Alexsandr Zubkov and Alexey Voevoda of Russia finished in second place, 0.18 seconds behind Hefti and Baumann. Francesco Friedrich and Jannis Baecker were third for Germany, one spot ahead of the Canadian sled of Lyndon Rush and Lascelles Brown. For the U.S. men, Nick Cunningham and Abe Morlu were 11th. Cory Butner and Andreas Drbal were 15th. Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale NFL Jerseys Jerseys From China Wholesale NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
