Rumyantseva continues para Nordic domination with 3rd gold

Ekaterina Rumyantseva did it again on Tuesday, winning a gold medal in the 10km standing event in biathlon.

It's the Russian's third gold at PyeongChang, with her other wins coming in the 6km standing biathlon and the standing division of the 15km free in cross-country. She's accounted for three of the five gold medals Russian athletes have won in PyeongChang so far.

Rumyantseva won the 10km biathlon by 1 minute, 23 seconds over fellow Neutral Paralympic Athlete Anna Milenina.

U.S. defeats South Korea to win Group B in hockey

The U.S. remains perfect. After defeating host South Korea 8-0 on Tuesday, the Americans finished the preliminary round of hockey as Group B winners and moved into the semis.

Led by the first career goals of forward Josh Misiewicz - he scored twice in nearly two minutes - and a hat trick from Declan Farmer, the U.S. finished the round having scored 28 goals and allowed none.

Farmer and teammate Brody Roybal lead all skaters in the event with eight goals apiece.

1st-time Paralympian Jepsen captures gold for Canada

Mollie Jepsen, an 18-year-old first-time Paralympian, is a gold medalist. The Canadian was a surprise winner in the standing division of women's super combined, edging a group of favorites that included three-time world champion Marie Bochet of France.

Bochet made a costly mistake trying to round the final corner of the course too sharply and missed a gate in the process, which forced a DNF.

Jepsen also captured a bronze medal in the standing division of women's downhill Saturday.
