Gagnon captures super-combined

Marie-Michele Gagnon ended a 30-year drought for Canadian women in World Cup combined events in Austria by earning her maiden victory yesterday.

Gagnon was 1.37 seconds off the lead in 16th after the super-G portion but went ahead of the field after posting the second fastest time in the slalom run. “It’s really exciting, a magical moment,” said Gagnon, who wasn’t even born when Gerry Sorenson won a combined event in Puy St. Vincent, France, on January 8, 1984 for the last triumph by a Canadian woman.
