Editing 2006 Winter Olympics (section)

===Day 10===
[[Lascelles Brown]] became the first Jamaican-born competitor to win a medal at the Winter Olympics on 19 February, competing on the Canadian 2-man bobsleigh team which finished second in an extremely tight competition. The German pair was only .21&nbsp;seconds ahead of the Canadians, themselves only .14 ahead of the Swiss team. Finland continued to be unbeaten in men's ice hockey, handing Canada its second loss.

The day also saw the most hyped event of these games, at least in Europe, as the Men's 10&nbsp;km Cross Country Relay was scheduled. The battle stemmed from the [[1994 Winter Olympics|Lillehammer]] games 12 years ago in which Italy out-dueled Norway in that very same event. To that extent, many Norwegians wanted to win this event in order to embarrass the Italians on their home turf, but it was not to be as Italy crushed the field winning over Germany by over 15&nbsp;seconds to take their 5th straight gold in this event. Norway failed to medal for the first time since 1988.
