It was a podium finish for pilot Justin Kripps and brakemen Ryan Sommer, Cam Stones, and Ben Coakwell on Saturday in Winterberg, Germany.
The four-man bobsleigh team earned a bronze-medal finish on the World Cup circuit, just behind a pair of German sleds.
The Kripps crew slid to a two-run combined time of one minute 48.09 seconds – 0.14 seconds back of winner Francesco Friedrich, who claimed yet another victory in 1:47.95.
Fellow German pilot Johannes Lochner took silver in 1:48.00.
Kripps will have another chance at the podium this weekend – the second four-man event in Winterberg goes on Sunday at 7:30 a.m. ET (CBCSports.ca)
