Kitzbühel: Sullivan OK after training run crash
Marco Sullivan of the U.S. Ski Team took a nasty looking fall in the second downhill training run at Kitzbühel on Wednesday, but he is seemingly none the worse for it.
“He fell exiting the Hausberg,” U.S. head coach Phil McNichol said. “He caught an edge on that sidehill there, hooked up and went into the nets backwards. He broke a ski and broke a pole, but he’s not really too banged up. He'll know he took a fall, but he should be OK.”

Asked if Sullivan would participate in the scheduled Hahnenkamm downhill McNichol said it was looking doubtful any one would.
“It's softening up pretty good out there and they’re calling for rain. It doesn't look too good.”
