Prior to the 2014 Sochi Olympics, defenseman Jincy Dunne was just 16 years old and was one of the last players cut from the U.S. Women's Hockey Team. She would have been the team's youngest player by over three years and only the second player to ever make the team at such a young age.
She'd go on to play for the national team at the U18 World Championships a total of three times. Her overtime goal at the 2015 tournament, where she was captain of Team USA, secured gold for the Americans. But her ascent as one of the nation's most promising young national team players was derailed by a head injury shortly after that golden goal.
