Steven Holcomb, a 2010 Olympic champion bobsledder, was found dead Saturday.
Holcomb was 37 years old.
Holcomb, a three-time Olympic medalist and three-time Olympian, was held high by many in his sport and in the Olympic movement.
Holcomb was training for his fourth and likely final Olympics in PyeongChang next February.
The native of Park City, Utah, had been competing in bobsled since 1998.
Here are reactions from Holcomb’s Olympic and bobsled teammates and family:
