SQUAW VALLEY, Calif. -- Olympic slalom gold medallist Mikaela Shiffrin won the giant slalom at the U.S. Alpine Championships by nearly 2 seconds on Thursday. The 19-year-old Shiffrin, who is based in Eagle-Vail, Colo., won her third U.S. title overall, after slalom championships in 2011 and 2012. She completed Thursdays two runs in 2 minutes, 30.93 seconds. The race was open to women from other countries, and Marie-Michele Gagnon of Lac-Etchemin, Que., finished second, 1.88 seconds behind. Julia Mancuso, a four-time Olympic medallist who lives in Squaw Valley, was third. Shiffrin became the youngest slalom champion in Olympic history last month at the Sochi Games, then returned to the World Cup circuit to wrap up a second consecutive slalom season title. All nine of her World Cup career race wins have come in slalom. John Matuszak Youth Jersey . And fellow Leaf, Jake Gardiner, hiking in Whistler. Antonio Brown Womens Jersey .

When you are in good shape you can take risks. And I attacked it all the way down.Paris hadnt won in his last 21 World Cups, his longest winning drought since his first victory in Bormio in December 2012.Norways Kjetil Jansrud was 0.78 back in seventh and remained in the lead of the discipline standings with 316 points, followed by Paris on 285.It wasnt a perfect run, said Jansrud, a winner of two super-Gs this season. No big mistakes but tactical mistakes.

Tomorrow is another chance for a win. I will use the afternoon for my preparations.Ted Ligety, the world champion in super-G and super-combined, failed to finish. The American was the first starter and missed a gate after landing from a jump toward the end of his run.Ligetys teammate, Andrew Weibrecht, placed fifth in the super-G for his career-best World Cup result.Its a great run for me, said the Olympic super-G silver medallist , who finished 18th in the combined event. I was aggressive, stuck to my plan.The super-G was interrupted for 20 minutes following a nasty crash by Switzerlands Marc Gisin, who was taken to hospital by helicopter. The Swiss ski team said Gisin had a mild concussion but escaped other injuries. ' ' '
