DAY 3 | MAR.9
- Welcome to day three at the Paralympic Winter Games - where there is plenty of Para alpine action ahead of us!
- First up is the women's Super G VI, featuring Meg Gustafson...
- Meg finishes in eighth to get our day started.
Kelsey O’Driscoll, Audrey Crowley and Allie Johnson all impressed but were unable to reach the medal spots in the women’s Super G standing in Cortina.
- O’Driscoll was the pick of the U.S. finishers, seventh in a time of 1:20.52, with Crowley one spot behind having crossed the line in 1:22.93. Johnson finished 13th in 1:30.46.

- Time for the Men's standing Super G now, and we have FIVE members of the U.S. team to come! Patrick Halgren, Andrew Haraghey, Jesse Keefe, Tyler McKenzie and Spencer Wood, it's your time.
- Love that, Patrick! He's into second after the first four racers - and the cheers tell the entire story.
- 🥈 IT'S SILVER FOR PATRICK HALGREN!
- MEDAL ALERT - Patrick isn't to be moved from the podium spots, winning Team USA's first medal in the men's standing Super G for more than two decades!
One of a group of five Team USA athletes, Halgren will take the plaudits but he wasn’t alone in the strong performances. Jesse Keefe (1:17.25) finished in 13th, with Spencer Wood (1:18.65) in 18th. Tyler McKenzie (1:19.90) finished in 21st, while Andrew Haraghey recorded a DNF.

- He already had a gold and silver, now his Paralympic collection has all three! Andrew Kurka wins the bronze medal in the men's Super G sitting, as we take home two medals from our day of Para alpine action.
- Patrick Halgren, Paralympic medalist. You better believe it - and the journey only goes on and on. "It's just another Monday. You celebrate the victories the same as the defeats. I've been blessed to have to develop my character over the last 11 years, losing my leg and could either roll over and die, or I could become the greatest Patrick Halgren on earth, and that's what you're seeing."
- Taking a third Paralympic medal and keeping the same motivation as ever. Andrew Kurka told the media after winning bronze in the Super G sitting just what it is that pushes him on: "Sport in general, especially Paralympic sport, it changed my life, and I think it changes so many lives. Because people after they get injuries, or after they have become disabled, they find themselves in a lull, being told what they can't do and not being told what they can do. To be able to come out here and basically race a motorcycle down a mountain on ice is something that we can do, and it's super fun."

He told the waiting media after his victory: "That's the best part for sure. To have so many people that came out and supported us and are going to continue to support us throughout the week. It's so nice having friends and family (here)."
- And if it's reactions you want, it's just that which came from Oksana Masters on winning gold. A roar of delight, huge celebrations and an embrace with fiancé Aaron Pike. They are scenes which will be replayed forever. "It was just such a relief and redemption from Beijing. It was the one that got away. I love sprints and I hate sprints because there’s so much stress. I struggle with believing in myself and that was a big thing. The team believed in me, so I wanted to show up for my team. It meant the world to me to have Aaron there to pick me up and hug me. It was so reminiscing of my first winter (Games) medal in Sochi (2014), when I got the bronze in the 5km and he just picked me up and hugged me exactly the same way, so I just had a little flashback to that. To have him here, to have our team here – I just can’t believe it."
- In amongst those gold medals was a superb silver for Sydney Peterson too. "Every time you go up to the starting line at the Games, it gets harder and there’s more pressure. There are many more hurdles to get through, so I’m pretty stoked about it. I’m very happy with how I skied today."

Here's what Sydney had to say about their brilliant rivalry: "I went out really hard, because I knew it was going to take everything I had to win today. About halfway (through the race), the splits turned the other way and Vilde started to close the gap on me. She’s such a strong skier, so I just tried to hold on and luckily it was enough.But you never know. She’s pushed me so much. She’s an amazing athlete, but more importantly she’s a very, very good person, she has amazing character and she works extremely hard, and is a very friendly competitor. I love having the opportunity to race against her."
- And a word from your three-time 2026 champion, Oksana Masters: "The competitor in me wants to keep pushing, (to find out) how many golds can I get from one Games. But at the same time, I am so excited to see the sport growing. Younger athletes are coming up, they’re helping me to get better, and I’m so excited to share this podium with my teammate (Kendall). Hopefully we can continue to go the same again."

- 12 years after winning gold in the sled hockey team, Josh Sweeney is back on top of a team podium! He told media after being part of the winning Team USA in the mixed relay: "I love being a part of a team. I joined the military because I wanted to be part of a team, I played sled hockey because I loved being part of the team. Playing sled hockey in the past, I feel like the team was the reason I thrived and had so much fun and just loved being a part of a team in the locker room. Here we don't have the locker room, but we have each other and the camaraderie that we do have is special and I really did feel that similar connection of I'm not out here for myself, and that's where I thrive. I love representing something bigger than myself, whether that's the United States of America or the team within the United States of America. It's really special to me."

DAY 2 | MAR.8
- It's almost time to find our first Para snowboard medalists of these Games! The men's SBX SBLL-1 and SBX SBLL-2 medals will be decided, while the women's SBX SBLL-2 will be determined as well.

- In the men's SBX SBLL-2, Keith Gabel and Zach Miller just miss out on a place in the Big Final, third and fourth in their SF. And it's not to be for Joe Pleban either, who goes into a Small Final with three U.S. racers.

- It may not have been a medal today for Brenna Huckaby, but it's been about so much more that. Huckaby told reporters: "This is the first race that both of my girls, my daughters, have been to together, and I'm just happy that they get to see mom do what she does best. This has always been more than just me, and getting to share that with them and just have this giant celebration is amazing."
- Gold. Bronze. And now silver. Noah Elliott has the collection from his Games career! “It feels so cool. I finally got the silver (medal) in there. So awesome to be able to have that, have it in a case one day and set that up.”
DAY 7 | MAR.13

I didn't know if gold is my colour, I like silverIt feels great and to have my family and friends here, as well as a really, really good friends who came out to watch today, means everything. I was just stoked to be here, I think it's such a fun course. I got to get a medal with my teammate (Brenna Huckaby), one of my best friends in the world, that's unreal."
- The Redemption Games for Noah Elliott? Yeah, he's completed it. "I'm so, so proud. Oh my, my emotions. It was so hard for me not to cry coming across that finish line. And I'm sure it's going to happen during the medal ceremony. I've worked so hard, and this is my 'Redemption Games'. And to be able to stand atop the podium today, hear our national anthem, I couldn't be more proud."
- And what a way to end Para snowboard at these Milano Cortina 2026 Paralympic Winter Games. Thank you for joining us - it's been a truly incredible nine days of action across Milano, Predazzo and here in Cortina.
DAY 1 | MAR.7
- Welcome to the opening day of Sled Hockey action at the Milano Cortina 2026 Paralympic Winter Games! Team USA get their pursuit of another Paralympic title underway later today (5:05pm local time) when they take on hosts Italy.
- Ready for our first appearance of these Games? Declan Farmer is and he's got previous with taking on host nations. "Since I have been on the Paralympic team, I have been able to play the host country in each of my Games, so Sochi, PyeongChang and Beijing, and that is always exciting. There is always extra energy. It is a beautiful arena, people are excited about the Paralympics here, so it is a fantastic way to start the tournament with all the energy in the world.”
- Underway in our opening clash in Milano. Italy took a very early lead, but David Eustace has us back on level terms.
- And Brett Bolton gives Team USA the lead in the first period...and Declan Farmer adds a third to extend our advantage.
- Team USA step into a dominant position early in the second period, finding the net four times in the first five minutes of this one to make it 7-1.
- Three more from Declan Farmer has been the highlight of the second period as we head into third period, the U.S. 10-1 ahead.
- It's all over in a record victory as Team USA take a 14-1 victory against the hosts, with 53 shots on goal and nine separate scorers making it a spectacular first showing at these Games.
- A word from Josh Pauls on a superb (and Games record for Team USA) victory: "I think it's just so impressive to see the depth we have. And, obviously, our training has paid off. It's just one game. I don't think we can get wrapped up in one 45-minute effort. I think it bodes well for the future and for playing Germany in two days."
DAY 3 | MAR.9
- Back to it then. After a record-setting opening victory against Italy on Saturday, we're returning to the ice aiming to make it two-from-two when we face off with Germany at 5:05pm local time this evening.
- Underway...and ahead! Declan Farmer strikes twice inside the first three minutes for his fifth and sixth of these Games. The U.S. lead 2-0.
- 6-0 at the end of the first, with a Farmer hat-trick all tied up.
- Two games, 27 goals. It's a 13-0 victory for Team USA - superb once again in Milano. They'll face off with China on Tuesday in their next encounter on the search for five-in-a-row.
DAY 4 | MAR.10
- We're aiming to make it three from three - and we've started well against China. We took a 2-0 lead into the second period and Brody Roybal has just added a third.
- It's been a top performance from the team so far - we've got 11 left to play and a 7-0 lead in the pocket.
- A 7-1 win and HISTORY for Declan Farmer! He gets three more to make it a ridiculously good 11 goals in three Games. It not only equals the record for goals in a single Paralympics, but it looks to have put him ahead as the all-time leading scorer in Paralympic history.
- And with those three wins, we top Group A and wait to find out who we'll be taking on in the semifinals.
- With a couple of days off ahead of the semifinal, the team have a chance to rest, says Josh Pauls. "I think the focus for tomorrow (Wednesday) is to get away from the rink, decompress from hockey and take some time to enjoy Milan and enjoy being here, especially with the friends and family we have supporting us too.”
- It's confirmed that we'll meet with Czechia in the semifinals on Friday! The action will take place at 2:35pm local time.
DAY 7 | MAR.13
- Semifinal time awaits us! Team USA are out on the ice as they aim to continue their longstanding winning run at the Paralympic Games. Win today and we're guaranteed a medal on the pursuit of five titles in a row.
- Here we go! USA, Czechia, for a place in the Paralympic final. It's underway.
- It's Czechia who strike first past Griffin Lamarre, 1-0 after six minutes.
- Declan Farmer 🤝 scoring Milano Cortina 2026 goals. He sets the record for most goals at a single Games and gets us back level.
- 3-1 after two periods! David Eustace and another from Farmer give us a two-goal cushion heading into the final 15 minutes.
- Josh Pauls gets a fourth!
- And Declan Farmer gets ANOTHER hat-trick - incredible once again from Declan.
- It's all over and we're into a FIFTH consecutive sled hockey final! We come out on top, winning 6-1 and wait to find out if it's Canada or China we'll meet on Sunday at 4:05pm local time.
DAY 9 | MAR.15
- In case you didn't get the memo...we're going for a five-peat.
- Team USA are going in search of their FIFTH consecutive Paralympic title in sled hockey and we'll go for it today, 4:05pm local time in Milano. We take on Canada - and it's going to be unmissable.
- And we're underway in the gold medal match!
- TEAM USA LEAD IN THE GOLD MEDAL GAME! Jack Wallace strikes home in the power play!
- 1-0 at the end of the first period - great start from the team.
- Canada level early in the second period - but Kayden Beasley restores the lead!
- WALLACE SCORES AGAIN! 3-1!
- And that's the second period in the books. 3-1 is the gap.
- IT'S A JACK WALLACE HAT-TRICK FOR 4-1!

- And it's victory for Team USA! Dwyer and Emt are victorious over the hosts by a score of 7-5.
- So, how do you deal with the noise of a home crowd? For Laura Dwyer, it's all in the training. "I just pretended they were cheering for me. Why not, right? I have been trained to not try to block it out. That's too much work. Why work at blocking it? It’s there so just let it be there. Don't fight it...it’s so cool. It's not something I have experienced before."
- Advantage Team USA in the Mixed Team! After the first end, it's a 3-0 lead to O'Neill, Uranchimeg, Rose and Thums.
- A big start from our U.S. team! After three ends, we lead 7-1 after a 4-0 in end three. And after five ends, it's 9-1 - a super night so far for the team.

- Back-to-back victories for the mixed team! They get a 7-1 victory over Sweden and will take on Latvia at 6:35pm local time this evening.
- Off the back of two wins in a row, Oyuna Uranchimeg gave a few words to the media: "Now we're finally playing up to our own expectations. In the first couple of games we tried but we had misses here and there. So it was a little bit disappointing for our own expectations. And then everybody shot really good. I'd like to see us when all four of us are shooting really well. When we're firing on all four cylinders."

MAR 10
- Welcome to what is set to be a huge day of action in Cortina! Steve Emt and Laura Dwyer shocked China to secure a place in the final four in the mixed doubles yesterday. Today, they take on Korea, with the winner progressing through to the gold medal clash. Can we make it there?
- And later today, there's mixed team action as Team USA look to get back to winning ways against Slovakia.
- It's not to be a gold medal match for Steve Emt and Laura Dwyer, who fall short against Republic of Korea in a score of 3-6. But it's not over yet.
- The duo will take on Latvia tomorrow (3/11) at 2:35pm local time as they aim to collect the bronze. It's already a huge achievement, with the U.S. not having qualified for the medal rounds since 2010.
- With bronze still a prospect, it's all focus on that for Emt. He told the media: "I want it more than anything in my life right now. We've been going at it for a while; Laura and I both deserve it. The United States of America deserves it. So it's like Laura said, we're going to learn from this one."
- Underway in the mixed team encounter as the team take on Slovakia.
- Slovakia lead this one 3-0 after the first couple of ends.

MAR 11
- Another day - and our first chance at a medal in wheelchair curling! The doubles duo of Laura Dwyer and Steve Emt will take on Latvia for the bronze medal at 2:35pm local time. But first we have mixed team action - and it's underway now against Republic of Korea.

- And they do! A top tier win for the U.S. team who beat Republic of Korea 9-2. We're up next against Norway and Canada tomorrow in the final batch of round robin games.
- A big win and big celebrations for the team after that one, then. Dan Rose spoke to the media after to give his thoughts on their tournament so far: "We came out firing on all cylinders, and kind of everything was going well. Curling is one of those sports where when you're hot, you're hot, and that was one of those games. We still trust the process. Every game we've played, with the exception of Latvia, when we came out very cold, but every other game we've been playing really well. I feel like our performance is better than our record here."
- Next up, it's time to see if we can get bronze in the wheelchair curling mixed doubles. It begins at 2:35pm local time and we.are.set. Can Dwyer and Emt bring back the first ever U.S. medals in the sport at a Paralympic Games?
- Here we go, then. Can Team USA create history? It all begins...now.
- The perfect start! After an astonishing first end showing, Dwyer and Emt lead by FOUR!
- That's their equal best end of these entire Games - what a time to get it!
- But it's a superb immediate response by Latvia though - they score five from the second end to move one in front.
- Four ends in and the gap remains at one. Latvia took the third end 1-0, but Dwyer and Emt have just hit back with the same score. 6-5 at the midway point.
- The gap's up to two now, with Latvia taking the fifth end. This is gonna be a tense last few ends...
- Remember when Team USA got four in the first end of this one? Well, THEY'VE JUST DONE IT AGAIN
- Dwyer gets the final stone into a scoring position, U.S. take four and we've got a 9-7 lead with two ends remaining!
- The lead changes hands again, as Latvia get three from the penultimate end to move 10-9 ahead. This is going to be very, very tense.
- One stone left each and U.S. have two in scoring positions at it stands...
- Make that one - Dwyer to throw. Here we go, this is massive...
- We're going into an extra end at 10-10!
- It's so close, but Latvia come out on top, winning the final end by one and taking bronze with a scoreline of 10-11.
- A tough finale but Dywer and Emt have equaled the best ever Team USA result of fourth in wheelchair curling. A superb effort by a duo who have delivered some of the finest performances we've seen on the highest stage.
MAR 12
- We're underway in the first of a double-header for the U.S. mixed team. Victory here against Norway is a must in order to potentially reach the semifinal stages.
- After the opening three ends, we're 1-3 down as it stands.

- And the gap is down to just one now as U.S. take the seventh end!
