Kaillie Humpries and pilot Melissa Lotholz were one one-hundredth of a second short of a gold medal Saturday at the bobsled World Cup in St. Moritz, Switzerland.
Humphries and Lotholz earned silver with a total time of two minutes 16.15 seconds behind Americans Elana Meyers Taylor and Briauna Jones' 2:16.14. Jamie Greubel Poser and Lauren Gibbs of the United States finished third.
