LAKE PLACID, N.Y. (AP) — Nearly a year after he retired from the U.S. Ski team, Andrew Weibrecht's resume is complete.

The two-time Olympic medalist from Lake Placid and Bode Miller were among eight people inducted into the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame and Museum on Saturday night.

Others inducted at the ceremony in Salt Lake City were: ski racing pioneer Don Henderson; Kristen Ulmer, the first female extreme skier; mogul skier Hilary Engisch-Klein, who won 35 World Cup events; former USSA vice president of communications Tom Kelly; entrepreneur Tom Sims; and resort executive Bill Jensen.

The 33-year-old Weibrecht competed on the U.S. ski team for 16 years and won silver at the Sochi Olympics in 2014 and bronze at Vancouver four years earlier, both in super-G.
