Lamoureux twins play key roles in USA hockey gold medal
North Dakota sisters Jocelyne (Davidson) and Monique (Morando) Lamoureux of Grand Forks are finally golden. Each scored a goal on to lift the United States over Canada 3-2 in a shootout in the gold medal game at the Olympic Winter Games in PyeongChang, South Korea. Jocelyne's goal in the sudden- death shootout - 38 years to the day of the U.S. men's hockey team's Miracle on Ice - snapped Canada's streak of four straight gold medals. Just like the men's miracle, this win, too, snapped a 20-year gold-medal drought by the U.S., which last won gold in 1998.
