VAL DI FIEMME, Italy (Jan. 15, 2017) - Bryan Fletcher (Steamboat Springs, CO) capped a three-event weekend in Val di Fiemme, finishing 13th in a nordic combined World Cup.

Fletcher jumped to 33rd but turned on the gas during the 10k cross country to record the second fastest time, finishing 56.8 seconds behind winner Eric Frenzel of Germany and seven seconds outside the top 10. Brother Taylor was 30th.

The weekend opened on Friday with Frenzel also taking the win on the HS134 meter hill and 10k cross country. Taylor Fletcher jumped to 46th, but boosted it to 21st after finishing fourth in cross country. 

In Saturday’s team sprint, brothers Fletcher combined to finish eighth - 40 seconds behind winning Norway. The Czech Republic was second with Italy third. Germany was uncharacteristically off the podium in fifth and sixth.

The tour now heads to one of its iconic sites in Chaux-Neuve, France for a pair of individual events next weekend.
