Page clears a hurdle

American Jonathan Page has been cleared of a doping violation by the United States Anti-Doping Agency, the agency reported this week. Page was notified last month that he had missed a doping control at the Koksijde World Cup – a race he abandoned after crashing. Page explained last month that he had sought medical assistance after the crash and was unaware he had been called for a random control.

"USADA announced today the unanimous decision by a three-member panel from the American Arbitration Association (AAA)/North American Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) that cyclo-cross athlete Jonathan Page, of Northfield, NH, did not commit an anti-doping rule violation," the press release read.
