Olympic hopeful Katie Uhlaender reacted to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS)\u2019s ruling after she made a case to join Team USA for the Milan Cortina Winter Games.<\/p>\n

The CAS said it had no jurisdiction to consider her case against Bobsleigh Canada Skeleton (BCS) coach Joe Cecchini and the International Bobsled and Skeleton Federation (IBSF) over the results of the IBSF North American Cup Race and Skeleton qualification for a spot in the Winter Olympics<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Uhlaender appeared on Fox News Channel\u2019s “America\u2019s Newsroom”<\/a> and told anchor Dana Perino that she didn\u2019t necessarily disagree with the ruling but she is now at a crossroads.<\/p>\n

“I don\u2019t know that I disagree that it was out of their jurisdiction to be fair. The dispute happened prior to the 10-day window,” she said. “What I want to happen is \u2013 something. I don\u2019t know what the solution is at this point because I\u2019ve exhausted all of these pathways within the system and from what I could understand, it will be up to the IOC and potentially the IBSF to allocate an extra spot for extreme circumstances. But we don\u2019t know who should ask for that or exactly how to do it. This is where I\u2019d ask (Vice President) Vance for help.”<\/p>\n

Uhlaender sought qualification after she missed out on the chance to qualify when Team Canada withdrew athletes from the North American Cup race in early January, reducing the number of points that the event could award. The point reduction made it impossible for Uhlaender to earn enough to qualify.<\/p>\n

An investigation by the IBSF found that\u00a0Team Canada intentionally manipulated<\/a>\u00a0the points at the competition in Lake Placid, New York. However, the IBSF also did not revise any of the results or deliver any penalties as a result. The U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee (USOPC) sent a letter to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) petitioning to have Uhlaender granted a spot. Fifteen other countries have joined in on that petition.<\/p>\n

“This is all within the rules. There\u2019s nothing wrong with those things. And people can be strategic in the races that they participate. And she was doing that, and other nations were doing that, because you want to put your best foot forward,” Cecchini said. “This is a system flaw, if anything. But we were within the rules.”<\/p>\n

Cecchini also took aim directly at Uhlaender, saying she isn\u2019t a “top-tier athlete.”<\/p>\n

“I don\u2019t really wanna speak negatively about Katie, but Katie was not on the World Cup team. She wasn\u2019t a top-tier athlete in that program anymore. She was at the end of her career. I would personally would rather race against Katie. She\u2019s not as competitive as the other athletes,” he said. “It\u2019s probably really unfair to say and not really where I want to go with this but that\u2019s where we are with that.”<\/p>\n

Uhlaender said on Fox News Channel that Cecchini wasn\u2019t really addressing the issue at heart.<\/p>\n

“I think that response says it all because he\u2019s not addressing the issue at all, which is that he intentionally tricked all the countries into thinking this race was full points,” she said. “He urged me to come race there and then, at the last second, he pulled all of his athletes. He didn\u2019t hide it. He told me, he told another coach that he did it for the points, and he knew he was going to hurt me and he knew he was gonna hurt the Denmark athlete and the Swiss girl might have to retire because of this and he didn\u2019t care. He said he wanted to eliminate any possibilities that could threaten Canada\u2019s second spot<\/a> even if it was just 1%. And the sad part is, there was no threat.<\/p>\n

“At the end of the races, the Korean athlete was not gonna surpass Canada. He hurt all of us just because he wanted to eliminate any possibility, which is not in the spirit of sport. And that\u2019s the point. It\u2019s not that it wasn\u2019t within the rules \u2013 you should be able to pull athletes for legitimate reasons. But not to hurt people.”<\/p>\n

Uhlaender added that she had hoped to be able to compete in her six Olympic Games and join Lindsey Vonn<\/a> as the only two athletes to have competed in 2002 and 2026.<\/p>\n

As of now, it doesn\u2019t seem like it will happen.<\/p>\n
