Frederica Freyberg:

Now for an update away from the state capitol and a look at the Olympics, where Wisconsin athletes have competed throughout the week. As of today, the men’s curling team is 2-2. Women’s team are 2-1. Both have matches this weekend. Wisconsin has sent three women’s hockey team members to the games this year. The women lost two and one won this week and will play in the semifinal on Monday. Another Wisconsin athlete, Matt Antoine, placed 14th on Friday in the skeleton. Nita Englund missed the final round in ski jumping by one spot. Ben Loomis placed 41st in Nordic combined skiing. He has more to come next week.
