ELIZABETH AND HARRIS Gerner react positively to World Cup soccer action on the screen at Middlebury’s Marquis Theater during the U.S.-Iran game. Their three-month-old-son Tommy isn’t so sure how he should react. The red-white-and-blue squad prevailed, 1-0, allowing the U.S. to advance to the round of 16.

THE RIKERT NORDIC Center had been scheduled to open on Monday, but after 10 days of enough snow to cover the course, most of the white stuff washed away in recent rains. Center officials, though, promised our photographer that there would be enough snow for

USA’S MIKAELA SHIFFRIN has that look of amused disappointment with her 13th place finish in Saturday’s giant slalom. She placed fifth in the slalom on Sunday, following four previous victories there at the World Cup. It wasn’t to be, said Shiffrin graciously after the race, saying to win her 50th World Cup event and her fifth consecutive slalom title at Killington was too much for the fates to grant.
