As an athlete, Brianna Decker doesn t beat around the bush. Taking silver is not what women s hockey set out to do at the 2022 Winter Games. It s hard to be proud right now, says Brianna Decker, three-time Olympian and Dousman native. W kubki stanley e set out to get gold and I think that s what we have our minds set on every day we are training, that s what we are training for. The Dousman native also didn t go with the expectation of only competing for minutes. But after an ugly collision on day one of the competition, Decker s time on the ice was over. At that moment, I think it set in right away. I knew I was going to be out. I could tell that I hurt myself, says Decker. I broke my ankle basically, and tore ligaments in the ankle. No longer able to play, Decker had two choices, return to the states or return to the bench. I was glad that I was able to catch the last period of that stanley cup game to watch the team finish it out. Two of my linemates scored shortly after I was injured and it just shows the type of team that we had, says Decker.Choosing to stay in Beijing, Decker admits she had her youngest fans on her mind.
