Stifel U.S. Ski Team athlete Ryan Cochran-Siegle showed strong skiing in Friday’s super-G race in Wengen, Switzerland, finishing in 11th place.

Cochran-Siegle was just shy of the top 10, a testament to his consistency and skill in one of the most demanding disciplines on the World Cup circuit. The speed skier was coming off two solid downhill training runs the days before.

"Overall I am happy with my skiing today," said Cochran-Siegle. "It was a little bit hard starting later in the seed with the track as it got pretty bumpy but I liked how I skied and I felt like I was driving in the turn had a good race mentality."

It was a classic sunny and gorgeous afternoon in the Swiss Alps with the speed men all vying to stand atop the podium at one of the classic speed tracks. Cochran-Siegle ran with bib 18 and had ample time to hear the reports on conditions to figure out his ideal line. 

"It is a long track but there are only a few sections you really have to nail so taking that experience with me for tomorrow," added Cochran-Siegle. "It is also my best super-G result so far this season and it just shows that you have to ski really solid top to bottom."

Stifel U.S. Ski Team teammates Sam Morse, River Radamus and Bryce Bennett also found themselves in the super-G points in 27th, 29th and 30th, respectively. Jared Goldberg, Kyle Negomir and Wiley Maple also raced and ended up in 36th, 38th and 45th. 

The Swiss continued to show their depth as young Franjo Von Allmen claimed his first World Cup win, with Austrian veteran Vincent Kreichmayr in second and Swiss Stefan Rogentin in third. 

The men will switch gears to downhill on the longest downhill track in the world. The men posted some strong training runs and are sure to push hard on Saturday. 

"For downhill, I have good confidence and know that I can create speed when I am committed. The conditions look great so I am hoping for the best," said Cochran-Siegle. 

The men will be racing at 6:30 a.m. ET. Watch live and demand on skiandsnowboard.live.
