Ryerson bolted out of the start, racing with skiers who placed in the 20s. The freshman may have been overly ambitious, as he spent much of the first half recovering from the early push.

Their symptoms were consistent with a life-threatening immune-system disorder called agranulocytosis, which kills 7% to 10% of patients and is rare except in chemotherapy patients and those taking certain antipsychotic medications...
