US Ski Team to honor 2 prospects killed in January avalanche (The Associated Press)
The U.S. Ski Team will honor two prospects killed in an avalanche last January by naming them to the squad this season. The team will recognize Bryce Astle, 19, and Ronnie Berlack, 20, during a ceremony Saturday. Astle and Berlack were part of a group of six skiers who were descending from a peak near Soelden, Austria, last January when they left the prepared slope and apparently set off the avalanche.
