THE MIRACLE ON ICE WAS MORE THAN JUST A GAME

For those who either were not around or were very young on Feb. 22, 1980, it is hard to imagine how low the American psyche had plummeted during the decade of the 1970s. Although the 1960s generally are regarded as the decade of tu- mult in America, the events of the ‘70s did more harm to American self-confidence than any decade in our nation’s history. A brief history lesson of that era would be highlighted by these keywords: Kent State, Pentagon Papers, Watergate, 1972 Olympic basketball defeat, Arab oil embargoes of 1973 and 1979, fall of Sai- gon, stagflation, New York City bankruptcy, Chrysler bankruptcy, the decline of the U.S. auto industry, the rise of Japanese auto industry, U.S. embassy takeover in Tehran, and Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. In short, as the new decade dawned at the beginning of 1980, the U.S. was down-and-out, a nation whose best times seemed behind it. Into the midst of this maelstrom at the height of the Cold War and the depths of American economic and military power stepped the U.S. Olympic hockey team, which was both the youngest team at the 1980 Olympics and the youngest-ever in U.S. Olympic history. The U.S. squad was by all accounts a mediocre group. The Soviets, Finns, Swedes, and Czechs were the medal favorites. Just making the medal round was beyond the grasp for the Americans. However, a 2-2 tie in the last minute with Sweden in the open- ing game was followed by a convincing and unexpected win over the Czechs. The U.S. team improbably advanced to the medal round, Guest Op-Ed along with the Soviets, the Swedes, and the Finns. Although the U.S. had made it to the final round of four, their first- round opponent would be the U.S.S.R, which had not lost an Olympic Stop big game trophy hunting hockey game since 1968 and had won the previous four gold medals.

A short story about a motorcycle. And a sudden turn.

When she was a young college student, Elisabeth Marra had a serious motorcycle accident that ultimately changed her life. Two years after the crash, her painful open fractures had failed to heal. Then she heard about a new and complex surgery pioneered by a surgeon who used a patient’s own stem cells to concentrate the healing process. This time, her surgery and subsequent therapy were successful. Elisabeth’s experience caused her to re- direct her own career aspirations. Inspired by the medical professionals who helped her reclaim her active lifestyle, she changed her major to study physical therapy—a profession where her own experience could help other patients prevail through difficult recoveries. We tell Elisabeth Marra’s story here to illustrate two of the most profound messages we know. Don’t give up, and remember to give back. If reading it inspires just one more person to achieve something special, then its telling here has been well worth while.
