U.S. team captain Charlie White and figure skating partner Meryl Davis had top performances in the short and free dances, helping the U.S. Olympic figure skating team receive a bronze medal in the new team competition.

Ladies’ mogul skier Hannah Kearney, who won gold last year, made a mistake at the top of the hill on her final run, but recovered and was able to earn a bronze medal.

So far, the women’s ice hockey team has won their first two matches against Finland and Switzerland.

 Watch the ladies’ downhill skiing, men’s 500 meter speed skating, women’s luge, men’s pursuit biathlon and much more tonight on NBC.
