Moe, of Girdwood, Alaska, severed a tendon connected to his right thumb Saturday in a Kitzbuehel, Austria, bar.

Reigning world aerials champs Trace Worthington and Nikki Stone, as well as Donna Weinbrecht and Liz McIntyre, were chosen for the U.S. freestyle ski team that will compete next week in the World Championships in Nagano, Japan.
