Gibbs, Evans picked as U.S. Olympic women's bobsled pushers

"We don't take this decision light-heartedly," USA Bobsled and Skeleton CEO Darrin Steele said. "The selection committee chose the athletes they think have the best chance of bringing home hardware from Korea for Team USA. I wish we could take the entire team with us because they've all proven how hard-working and determined they are in addition to being incredibly talented."

Lolo Jones, who pushed Meyers Taylor to a World Cup gold earlier Saturday in St. Moritz, Switzerland, did not make the team. She was bidding to become a four-time Olympian — twice in the summer as a hurdler, twice in the winter as a bobsledder.
