How did Ontario County’s Dylan Walczyk do?
Dylan Walczyk, a former Bristol Mountain athlete who also competed in Beijing, finished 13th in the finals of men’s moguls on Thursday and made it to the quarterfinals of the dual moguls on Sunday.
For moguls, a skier will get a score of up to 100 points, which is based 60% on turns, 20% on air, and 20% on speed. Walczyk earned a score of 77.62 on Thursday in the moguls finals, but fell short of making it to the second round, reserved for only the top eight finishers. Australia’s Cooper Woods took the gold medal for moguls, followed by Canada’s Mikael Kingsbury with silver, and Japan’s Ikuma Horishima with bronze.
In dual moguls, which made its Olympic debut this year, skiers compete side-by-side on the course and only one moves on. Walczyk beat South Korea’s Yoonseung Lee, then Australia’s George Murphy, but lost to Horishima, who went on win silver and add another medal to his collection. Kingsbury won gold after defeating Horishima in the finals, giving him his fifth Olympic medal. Australia’s Matt Graham won bronze.
