Olympic chief proud of Irish achievements

Clifton Wrottesley, Ireland's chef de mission at the Winter Olympics, has said his athletes "can hold their heads up high" after their achievements in Turin.

Wicklow's David Connolly (20th, skeleton), skier Thomas Foley of Kerry (31st, giant slalom), Dublin woman Kirsten McGarry (32nd, giant slalom) and Oslo-based Corkman Rory Morrish (88th, 15km classical cross-country skiing) were all first-time Olympians.
