Rohbock and Val Fleming took 4th place in 2007-2008
World Cup. The USA1 team overcame early-season injury, but came back to
hold a place in the top 6. |

Erin
Pac (Farmington,
CT) and Elena Meyers rally during the season with a 7th place in the 2008 World
Championships. Pac, a former brakeman, might be the fastest rising pilot in
USA women's bobsled history. |

Bree
is currently on the America's Cup tour. She placed 3rd at Calgary and 2nd at
Park City. No doubt she's a contender for the World team. |
|
|
|
Jamia
is a fierce competitor with enough determination to land a spot on the World
team. As a rookie this season, she took 8th at St. Moritz--not an easy track
for a new pilot. |
