BEIJING, China — Summer Brichter is from Glen Rock, Pennsylvania which is just south of York.

She admitted she still gets a little scared in the sled but has matured in her approach to the sport.

“I’ve put a lot more focus in being responsible with my diet, paying attention to things like sleep and recovery,” she said.

Britcher broke one of her fingers in a crash during a competition earlier this month in Latvia but said it won’t stop her in Beijing.
