IOC reports two more positive drug tests from Salt Lake City

LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) -- The International Olympic Committee

is investigating two more positive drug tests from the Salt Lake City Games.

One case involves the steroid nandrolone, and the other involves the stimulant methamphetamine, the IOC said Friday. It didn't identify the athletes or sports involved pending a hearing.

If the tests are confirmed as doping violations, the IOC executive board would disqualify the athletes and strip them of any medals.

IOC medical director Patrick Schamasch said hearings likely would be held early in the week beginning March 11.
