Lake Placid (RWH) Sochi Olympic bronze Medalist Erin Hamlin will head the team of USA Luge for the Viessmann Luge World Cup events in November and December. The 2009 World Champion will be joined 2014 Olympian Summer Britcher, World Cup medal winner Julia Clukey, and 2013 Junior World Champion Emily Sweeney.

Chris Mazdzer, fresh off his sixth National Championship title, enters the fall World Cup as the top-ranked athlete for the United States, having placed fifth in last season's World Cup rankings. Mazdzer's 2014 Olympic teammates Tucker West and Aidan Kelly will join him when the World Cup begins in Igls, Austria on November 29 and 30. Taylor Morris, 23 of South Jordan, Utah, may join the team for some portion of the fall World Cup, depending upon his health. He is recovering from ankle and wrist injuries.

The newly crowned National Championship winning duo of Matt Mortensen and Jayson Terdiman are set to make their World Cup debut as a team in Igls (AUT). Mortensen, 28 of Huntington Station, N.Y, and Terdiman, 25 of Berwick, Pa., raced in the 2014 Olympic doubles competition, but with different teammates.

Jake Hyrns and Andrew Sherk will also race in a portion of the fall World Cup events. Hyrns, 21 of Muskegon, Mich., recently returned from basic training as a member of the Army National Guard. As a result, he and Sherk, 22 of Fort Washington, Pa., may need extra time to prepare for the coming season.
