Jamaica preps for icy slide as three bobsleigh sleds qualify

Jamaica's bobsleigh team is heading back to the Olympics with a full set of sleds. The squad is locked in qualification for the upcoming Winter Games, sending entries in three events. This matches their presence from the previous Olympics, secured through rankings on the international circuit.

Mica Moore earned the women’s monobob spot with steady results. Pilot Shane Pitter will drive both the two-man and four-man sleds for the men’s team. His two-man crew rotates with Nimroy Turgott, Joel Fearon, and Junior Harris.

The four-man unit features Andrae Dacres, Harris, Tyquendo Tracey, and Fearon. Their qualification followed consistent performances against top winter sports nations. A North American Cup gold medal for the four-man team highlighted the season, where they beat Canadian competition.

The women’s two-woman team narrowly missed direct qualification, landing as the first alternate. They could still compete if another nation withdraws before the final deadline.
