CORTINA d'Ampezzo, Italy – In his rookie season as a driver for Team USA four-man bobsled, University of Massachusetts men's track and field alumnus Kris Horn claimed 11th in the event, racing at the Cortina Sliding Centre on Sunday at the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Olympics.
Horn piloted his sled into Sunday's Heats 3 and 4 after his team had runs of 54.60 and 55.01 after Heats 1 and 2 on Saturday. They sat eighth after Heat 1 and ninth after Heat 2 before finishing 11th after runs of 55:22 and 55.11 on Sunday, 2.37 seconds off the gold medal-pace.
