Americans Demong, Lodwick 1-2 in Nordic combined
(AP) — Americans Bill Demong and Todd Lodwick have placed 1-2 in a World Cup Nordic combined event that was shaped by a cancellation of the jumping portion.
One of the two jumping tracks in Predazzo broke on Sunday and organizers decided to use the jumping results from Friday to arrange the start of the 9-kilometer cross country race up Mount Cermis, which is usually used as a downhill ski slope.
Demong, who was seventh in the jumping section, won in 33 minutes, 49.9 seconds. Lodwick finished 15.3 seconds behind and Eric Frenzel of Germany was third, 24.1 seconds back.
It was the first win of the season for Demong, who won a world championship title in Liberec, Czech Republic, last season.
