Luge
he road to the Winter Olympics has been much smoother this time around for short-track speed skater J.R. Celski. Shortly before the 2010 Winter Games, he crashed during the U.S. Olympic trials and suffered a six-inch deep cut to his left quad. He overcame this adversity, ultimately ending up at the Games, and took home two bronze medals for his country. In Sochi, the eight-time World Championship medalist looks to better his Olympic performance and really make a name for himself on the oval track.
O
ne of the best female lugers in the United States is a woman who hails from the state of New York. Erin Hamlin will be racing for her country as she makes her third appearance at a Winter Games (2006, 2010). This year, the 27-year-old looks to build on a consistent career and inch as close as possible to the podium in Sochi as she can get. In her first trip to the Olympics in 2006, she finished the women’s singles event 12th overall. She slipped a little in the standings in 2010 to 16th, but she still finished as the highest placed American.

This could have been his third trip to the Olympics, but unfortunately he missed the minimum age requirement for the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino by 17 days. He almost didn’t compete at the 2010 Winter Games in Vancouver because he sliced his leg with his own skate blade during a collision at the U.S. trials. The cut required 60 stitches.
• • •
He used to be a competing inline skater until he watched speed skating at the 2002 Winter Olympics and switched sports. He executive produced and co-wrote the short documentary “The Otherside,” which is about the hip-hop scene and digital age of music in Seattle. He is good friends with rising star and rapper Ben Haggerty, also known by his stage name “Macklemore.”
• •
She was a track and soccer all-star when she attended high school in her hometown of Remsen, N.Y. Olympic and World Cup champion soccer player Mia Hamm is her favorite athlete. She placed first in the women’s singles luge event at the World Championships in Lake Placid, N.Y., in 2009, ending the streak of 99 races where a German woman won gold. Because she often suffers from severe migraine headaches, she signed on as a spokeswoman for the National Headache Foundation in 2009. Her favorite book is “Angels & Demons,” by Dan Brown.

A family affair

e know blood runs thicker than water, but it’s the competitive juices that propel U.S. Olympians to success – especially siblings. It’ll be a family reunion of sorts for a few athletes as they head into Sochi to fight for gold alongside their brothers and sisters. Monique and Jocelyne Lamoureux grew up in Grand Forks, N.D., playing hockey on a pond outside their home with their four brothers. Their mother would blow a whistle three times from their porch to let them all know when supper was ready. Sometimes they listened right away, oftentimes they did not. “We would rarely listen, and she would have to march over to get us,” Monique told ESPN in November about her and her siblings’ selective hearing. “It was just something we always loved to do.” For the second time in as many Winter Games, these twins are heading to the Olympics to play side-by-side in an effort to bring home a gold medal for U.S. women’s
hockey. Their stat lines read almost identical. Both women are the same height and weight, they both had almost 500 points in high school with Shattuck-St. Mary’s and both of their college careers have proven outstanding. Despite winning silver in Vancouver in 2010, the twins both foster a growing drive to bring home the ultimate prize, and neither can imagine doing it without the other. “The sibling bond has always been a common theme for us, and being able to play and make the team together has made it that much more special,” Jocelyne said. “But we aren’t satisfied yet. We are hungry for more and eventually want to be able to go out on top.” The U.S. women’s ice hockey team is coming off an impressive 2013 World Championship victory over their biggest and long-time rivals in the Canadians. Though they haven’t won the gold medal at the Olympics since the inaugural tournament in 1998, the national team is poised to compete for it yet again in 2014.
For teammate Amanda Kessel, there’s just as much to prove. The reigning NCAA player of the year is heading to her first Olympics alongside her brother, NHLer Phil Kessel. The 22-year-old has been an absolute treat to watch on the ice since her start with Shattuck-St. Mary’s high school. Now with the Minnesota Golden Gophers, Amanda has posted 231 points in 114 games. In the 2012-2013 season, she helped lead Minnesota to a national championship and a 41-0-0 record. She scored the game-winning goal for the Americans at the 2013 World Championships and is now an Olympian. Brother Phil is four years older and has spent the last five seasons with the Toronto Maple Leafs in the NHL. He was drafted fifth overall by the Boston Bruins in the 2006 NHL entry draft, and is one of only a handful of young players who have posted four 30-goal seasons in a row. For Phil, this is his second Olympics and a chance at redemption. The 2010 U.S. men’s team lost a heartbreaker in overtime in the gold medal game against Canada.
Backed by some strong goaltending, this men’s team has the opportunity to grab what could have been theirs in Vancouver. The brother-sister duo has always had a competitive streak in them, something that not only shapes their games, but propels them forward. In an interview with ESPN magazine, Amanda describes how Phil tried to chase her down for five minutes after she beat him in a family game of ping-pong. “I beat him and had this little grin on my face,” she said. “I started walking to the stairs. Next thing I know, he’s coming after me. I ran as fast as I could.” Phil couldn’t catch her, and Amanda said she was glad as she wasn’t quite sure what he would have done if he had. Despite the fierceness in their relationship – they are brother and sister after all – they have respect for one another and each other’s style of play. Both have a fluid skating motion, which makes it look like they’re simply gliding over the ice, and both are also elite talents that contribute when a game is on the line.

Sibling rivalries heat up and help out the U.S. It’ll be a family affair when the Lamoureux twins and Kessel siblings head into Sochi. With relationships built from rivalries and strengthened by familial ties, you’d be hard-pressed to find any athletes in Russia who want to succeed more, not only for themselves but for their own flesh and blood too.
