Interesting Fact: David Bissett was a running back for the University of Alberta. After they were eliminated from the Canadian Interuniversity Sport playoffs in 2005, Bissett decided to give bobsleigh a try. Two months later he was making his World Cup debut.
Chances: Bissett will be part of the four-man team piloted by Lyndon Rush, as he was when they won bronze at Vancouver 2010. It’s in this event that Bissett stands the best chance of reaching the Olympic podium in Sochi.
