LILLEHAMMER, Norway -- Erin Hamlin and Raychel Germaine took the top two spots in the womens race and the U.S. doubles team of Matt Mortensen and Jayson Terdiman were won Sunday at the Lillehammer Cup.Also for the U.S., Tucker West was second in the mens race. The Lillehammer Cup is the unofficial start of the international luge season, capping a week of training for many of the worlds national teams in Norway.It was fun. We definitely treated it as a warm-up race for the World Cup season but it felt good to get into a bit of a race mode so soon, Hamlin said. It was a really busy week and the team, as a whole, slid really well. It was probably the best first week that I can think of, as far as sliding level and quality.It was a significant moment for Mortensen and Terdiman, who were World Cup contenders last winter.This morning was one that I certainly will not forget, Terdiman wrote on his Facebook page. After a long week of training (32 runs in total), Matthew and I finished the week with our first international victory. This is just an exhibition race, but with some serious competition in the field.Germaine was racing for the first time since having shoulder surgery last spring. Also in the womens race, Brittney Arndt was fourth and Emily Sweeney was fifth for the U.S.Another U.S. womens luger, Summer Britcher -- fifth on the womens World Cup circuit last winter -- entered the mens race Sunday and finished 18th against 25 male sliders. Chris Mazdzer, a World Cup race winner last winner, was fifth in the mens event.The U.S. contingent is expected back at its home base in Lake Placid, New York on Monday. Training at the track on Mount Van Hoevenberg is likely to begin next week, once the icing process at the venue is completed. Cheap Air Max 97 From China .

Whisenhunt said he hit it off quickly with Ruston Webster when interviewing for the job Friday night. England may be without James Anderson for the first three Tests in India as he continues his recovery from the shoulder injury which has hampered him since midway through the English season.Anderson has not been included in the 16-man squad for the five-Test tour which is unchanged from the group currently in Bangladesh.Alastair Cook had already said that Anderson would miss the opening Test in Rajkot and a decision over the involvement of him on the tour will be taken in the coming days, but it is understood that the Mumbai Test which begins on December 8 is now seen as his earliest return date.Speaking after the first Test in Chittagong, England coach Trevor Bayliss gave a positive outlook on Anderson. The medical staff are very pleased with how he has come on in the last week or so. He has had more scans and is looking good. They havent given any indication of when he might be available, but definitely out for the first Test in India.He was described as the difference between the sides by India captain MS Dhoni after England won the 2012 Test series between the teams, but it seems increasingly likely that England will have to learn to live without him.When Andeerson spoke to ESPNcricinfo earlier in October, he was confident over his recovery.ddddddddddddIm not going to miss the entire trip, no, he said. Im very confident Im going to be involved in the India series, it is a frustrating injury, something I want to get right, but it does happen in cricket, in sport, you get injured, youve just got to deal with it, and hopefully I can get as fit as possible as soon as possible.While there might have been a case for calling up another spin bowler for the India tour - England had two seamers (Steven Finn and Jake Ball) and one spinner (Zafar Ansari) on the side-lines for the first Test against Bangladesh in Chittagong - the England team management have suggested they are likely to retain faith in a six-man attack involving three seamers and three spinners.Mark Wood, the Durham fast bowler, who was part of the original squad for Bangladesh remains unavailable having required another ankle operation.If England do require reinforcements, they have an 18-man Lions squad a short flight away in the UAE.
