Five US Women Will Compete on First Day of Speed Skating’s ISU World Cup Event in Inzell, Germany

The first ISU World Cup event since the Olympics will take place in Inzell, Germany this weekend. After a disappointing Sochi Olympics the US speed-skaters will look to rebound back on the World Cup circuit. Events have an A and B division and someone from the B Division can’t win the overall event even if they were quickest between both divisions.

There are only a few events on the first day and the US has two women (Heather Richardson and Brittany Bowe) in the 1500m Division A event. Most of the competition for the US will happen in the first of the two women’s 500m races as Anna Ringsred, Kelly Gunther, Sugar Todd, Brittany Bowe, and Heather Richardson will all compete. The second 500m race will be on Saturday.

WeSupportTheUS.com will have coverage of the first day’s results on Friday evening as well as information on Saturday’s start lists.
