Slovenia wins team ski jumping World Cup event
By Associated Press
OBERSTDORF, Germany (AP) - Slovenia won a team ski jumping World Cup event Sunday, ahead of Austria and Norway.
The competition was cut short after the first series of jumps because of wind and snow.
Slovenia's Peter Prevc had the longest jump of the day at 225.5 meters, though he lost his balance on the landing. Slovenia had 732.5 points for the four jumps.
Austria had 731.8 points and Norway 715.9.
