Track cyclist Maggie Coles-Lyster didn't add to Canada's record medal haul at the Paris Olympics but managed a top-10 finish, placing ninth in women's omnium on Sunday.
The 25-year-old from Maple Ridge, B.C., scored five in the points race, the last of the omnium's four races after amassing 96 points over the scratch, tempo and elimination events at the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines Velodrome.
Coles-Lyster told CBC Sports it was a "bittersweet" ending to her first Olympics. "I was really happy with my first three races.
I was on cloud 9," she said. "The omnium has come down to the best points-race riders and I didn't quite have the legs to go with the laps that I needed to take to stay in contention [for a medal]." Canada opened competition Sunday with 27 medals — nine gold, seven silver, 11 bronze — a national record for a non-boycotted Summer Games.
