Just recently, the world famous American Apolo Ohno gained a silver medal in the men's speedskating 1500 m where he lost the gold toKorean, Lee Jung-Su, and allowed the bronze to fellow American John Celski.

The final for the women's ice hockey was 18-0 in favor of Canada over Slavakia.

And in Men's luging, the race for medals are still going on, as Germany takes the top two spots using Felix Loch in first, and David Moeller in second, with Italy right behind, in third, with Armin Zoeggeler.

And finally, just now, women's freestyle skiing finished, where the first gold for the USA was won by Hannah Kearney, with Canada's Jennifer Heil coming in a close second.
And so the gold goes to Hannah Kearney, the silver goes to Jennifer Heil, and the bronze goes to American, Shannon Bahrke.

America, is now officially in the lead with the most medals, and the highest ranked medals. But the night is still young.

Till tomorrow, I'm Sportsmaster JR, and remember, always stay inbounds!
Alright, so in another round of Olympic action today, the competition is heating up.
I'll start with the men's short-track Speedskating. This is a 1500 m race, where skaters can show there fast explosiveness on the track.
Where so far in the over all placing, first place went to Korean, Lee Jung-Su, second place went to American, John Celski and third went to the Italian Nicola Rodigari.
Over, to women's side of speed skating, where the over all placing is not complete, as there are plenty of heats that haven't started yet.

And in women's hockey, it is a true wipe-out, where the favored Canada, is facing off against Slavakia. The current score is 10-0 and it's not even over.

And finally, over in women's freestyle skiing qualification round, USA and Canada take up the 7 of the top ten spots, including the top four.
First went to USA's Hannah Kearney, second went to Jennifer Heil of Canada, and third went to Heather McPhie of USA.

Today after yesterday's death of Georgian luger Nodar Kumaritashvili, the race for medals began.
On the women's side in the 7.5 km sprint biathalon. After the long back and forth battle for a medal, it ended with the gold going to Anastasia Kuzmina of Czech, the silver going to Magdalena Neuner of Germany, and the bronze going to Marie Dorin of France.

And in Ski Jumping, over on the mens side on normal hill, the gold went to Simon Ammann of Switzerland , the silver went to Adam Malysz of Poland, and the bronze went to Gregor Shlierenzauer of Austria.

In Women's Ice hockey, only one game, and it was in the preliminary round. It was Sweden VS. Switzerland. Sweden came out on top in an overwhelming victory of 3-0 on top.

And finally, in the men's 5000 m speed skating, tears were brought to the gold medalist's Sven Kramer of Netherlands as he climbed up to his family happily as he won in a nail-biter, with the silver medal going to Korean Seung-Hoon Lee, and the bronze going to Ivan Skobrev.

That's all the highlights I have for now, I'm Sportsmaster JR, and I will hopefully see you at 8:00 pm eastern for more highlights on the 2010 winter olympics
