Canadian Anderson disqualified

BARDONECCHIA, Italy (AP) _ Jasey-Jay Anderson of Mont. Tremblant, Que., was disqualified from his semifinal race in men's snowboardcross on Thursday.

Anderson crossed the finish line in second place _ good enough to qualify for the final _ but was disqualified after officials reviewed a crash he had with Spain's Jordi Font.

It was tough afternoon for the Canadians.

Drew Neilson of Vernon, B.C., was the top seed after posting the fastest qualifying time, but crashed in his quarter-final race. Francois Boivin of Jonquiere, Que., and Tom Velisek of Vernon, B.C., also failed to advance to the final.
