Canada scored another snowboarding medal on Day 9 of the Beijing Olympics, while the men’s hockey team’s first matchup with the United States ended in disappointment.

Here’s what you may have missed overnight from Friday night to Saturday morning.

Canada’s Eliot Grondin and Meryeta O’Dine won the bronze medal in the Olympic debut of mixed snowboard cross.

Grondin and O’Dine had already claimed the silver and bronze, respectively, in individual competition earlier in the week.

The duo sailed through the quarterfinal and semifinal rounds as Grondin set big leads in his opening runs, giving O’Dine the advantage in the staggered starts for the women.

But Grondin was finally overtaken in the final and finished third, while O’Dine — who did her best to get into second position — fell halfway through her last run. She still managed to finish third after a delay.

The United States won the gold while one of Italy’s two teams in the final claimed silver.

Fellow Canadians Liam Moffatt and Tess Critchlow were knocked out in the quarterfinals after finishing third in their heat.
