Previous Trondheim – FIS Nordic Combined World Cup Coverage

It was a good day in Trondheim for the US nordic combined athletes as three of the four made it to the main competition tomorrow. Bill Demong had a great jump today scoring a nice 112.2 total and placing 15th. If he could have a jump like that tomorrow he might be close enough to make some noise in the cross-country half. Bryan Fletcher had a really nice jump as well in 24th while Taylor Fletcher qualified in 47th. Nick Hendrickson missed out on qualifying after finishing in 54th and falling 3.3 points short of 50th.

Tomorrow the 50 men who qualified with start with ski jumping and follow that up with a 10km cross-country portion. The US traditionally is stronger at the cross-country half so a strong jump could make things interesting. Visit WeSupportTheUS.com tomorrow night for a recap of the event and a preview of the start of the next event in Oslo which will kick off with a provisional competition round on Thursday.
