VANCOUVER -- Atsuko Tanaka, Alexandra Pretorius and Taylor Henrich were named to Canadas Olympic womens ski jumping team Sunday ahead of the sports Winter Games debut next month. The three Calgary natives will compete after the sport was skipped by the Vancouver Games in 2010 but later included on the program for Sochi, Russia. The fight to include womens ski jumping prior to Vancouver went to the courts only to have the Supreme Court of Canada rule against the athletes appeal in 2009. "I have lost count of how many jumps I have done leading up to this point," said Tanaka. "But every jump got me one step closer to my goal and that was to make the Sochi 2014 Canadian Olympic team and I couldnt be more proud to represent my country in Russia." Mackenzie Boyd-Clowes, Dusty Korek, Trevor Morrice and Matthew Rowley will represent the mens side for Canada. The womens ski jumping competition begins Feb. 11 at the RusSki Gorki Jumping Center. The mens qualification round begins Feb. 8.

The Giants placed their 2012 first-round draft pick on season-ending injured reserve Thursday, roughly a month after he was hurt against the Eagles. Wilson sustained a herniated disk and tests showed some narrowing of his spinal column. An examination Monday showed improvement in the herniation, but not enough to let him play. Coach Tom Coughlin does not think that Wilson will need surgery. Still, there is concern. Giants defensive end Mathias Kiwanuka had a similar injury in 2010, sparking concern about his career. His injury healed with time and he returned and played a big role in the Giants 2011 Super Bowl season. Wilson was handed the Giants starting job at halfback after Ahmad Bradshaw was released after last season. He lost two fumbles in the season opener at Dallas and struggled most of the season playing behind a revamped offensive line. He finished with 44 carries for 146 yards and a touchdown.dddddddddddd The Giants also placed defensive tackle Shaun Rogers (knee) on injured reserve. The team activated running back Andre Brown from recallable injured reserve and defensive tackle Markus Kuhn from the reserve/physically unable to perform list. Brown was expected to be Wilsons backup this season, but he broke his left leg in the preseason finale against New England. He is expected to be active for Sundays game against Oakland, sharing the load with Peyton Hillis and Brandon Jacobs. Brown rushed for 385 yards and a team-high eight touchdowns last season. Rogers had nine tackles as a backup before being hurt against Minnesota on Oct. 21. The 13-year veteran spent the 2012 season on injured reserve after developing a blood clot in his leg. A seventh-round draft choice in 2012, Kuhn played in 10 games with one start as a rookie. He had 14 tackles (seven solo) and three passes defenced before tearing his anterior cruciate ligament in a game on Nov. 11 against Cincinnati.
