He finished 18th in the steeplechase earlier at these Olympics.

Americans Sam Morse, Kyle Negomir and River Radamus also competed in the super-G. Morse finished 23rd with a time of 1:27.12 and Negomir finished 26th with a time of 1:28.62. Radamus did not complete the pitch as he slipped and fell out of position. He appeared to be frustrated with himself as he skied toward officials who were near his section of the hill.
Cochran-Siegle, who is from Vermont and skis out of the Mount Mansfield club, made his World Cup debut when he was 19. But he has finished no better than seventh in super-G in his career. He’s done for these games and will be cheering on his ski teammates the rest of the way.
