  • 60 “Campers” Arrive in Lake Placid for Second Annual Miracle on Ice Fantasy Camp
    DATE: April 3, 2016 CONTACT: Jon Lundin, ORDA director of communications, ([email protected]) at (518) 523-1655 ext. 5313 *** VIDEO RELEASE *** 60 “Campers” Arrive in Lake Placid for Second Annual Miracle on Ice Fantasy Camp LAKE PLACID, N.Y. --- The 60 campers arrived, in Lake Placid, N.Y, today, Sunday, April 3, to participate in the five-day long second annual Miracle on Ice Fantasy Camp. These campers come from as far away as Seattle, Wash. and range in age from 28 to 68 years-old. While in the two-time Olympic village they will spend the entire time playing hockey, hanging out with and listening to stories told by 16 players from the famed 1980 U.S. Olympic Hockey Team. It was 36 years ago that this group of mostly college age hockey players defeated the favored Soviet Union 4-3, in the game that’s known world-wide as the “Miracle on Ice,” en- route to the improbable Olympic gold medal. The 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team players taking part in the camp include Bill Baker, Neal Broten, Dave Christian, Mike Eruzione, John Harrington, Steve Janaszek, Mark Johnson, Rob McClanahan, Ken Morrow, Jack O’Callahan, Mark Pavlich, Mike Ramsey, Buzz Schneider, Dave Silk, Eric Strobel and Mark Wells. The squad’s assistant coach, Craig Patrick, is also in Lake Placid. All Fantasy Campers were picked up from Albany (N.Y.) International Airport and transported to Lake Placid via motor coach. While in Lake Placid, they’ll receive hockey instruction and play games while spending four nights at the High Peaks Resort.

  • In One of the Most Dramatic Upsets in Olympic History, the Underdog U.S
    In one of the most dramatic upsets in Olympic history, the underdog U.S. hockey team, made up of college players, defeats the four-time defending gold-medal winning Soviet team at the XIII Olympic Winter Games in Lake Placid, New York. The Soviet squad, previously regarded as the finest in the world, fell to the youthful American team 4-3 before a frenzied crowd of 10,000 spectators. Two days later, the Americans defeated Finland 4-2 to clinch the hockey gold. The Soviet team had captured the previous four Olympic hockey golds, going back to 1964, and had not lost an Olympic hockey game since 1968. Three days before the Lake Placid Games began, the Soviets routed the U.S. team 10-3 in an exhibition game at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The Americans looked scrappy, but few blamed them for it--their average age, after all, was only 22, and their team captain, Mike Eruzione, was recruited from the obscurity of the Toledo Blades of the International League. Few had high hopes for the seventh-seeded U.S. team entering the Olympic tournament, but the team soon silenced its detractors, making it through the opening round of play undefeated, with four victories and one tie, thus advancing to the four-team medal round. The Soviets, however, were seeded No. 1 and as expected went undefeated, with five victories in the first round. On Friday afternoon, February 22, the American amateurs and the Soviet dream team met before a sold-out crowd at Lake Placid.

Lebanese officials say Syria and Israel have given President Ge- mayel's government the go-ahead for a Saudi-Arabian- sponsored plan to separate Lebanon's warring factions. The proposal would establish buffer zones in Beirut's outskirts and the neighboring mountains. Eight-hundred observers from Italy and Greece will be requested to police the zones. DALLAS (UPI)--Testimony resumed today in a federal courtroom in the $43 million lawsuit against the makers and sellers of a 22-caliber handgun that left a high school sophomore a quadriplegic. An attorney for 21-year-old David Clancy says his case is aimed at using product liability law to force cheap handguns off the market. Clancy was wounded in 1977 by an accidental discharge from a classmate's revolver. PIKEVILLE, Md.
