Jocelyne Lamoureux

Her father, Jean-Pierre, was a backup goaltender at the University of North Dakota from 1979–83.

Besides her twin sister, Lamoureux has four brothers.

Jocelyne Nicole Lamoureux-Davidson (born July 3, 1989) is a former American ice hockey player, author, gender equity advocate, and co-founder of the Lamoureux Foundation.

Together they played on the Peewee A Boys' team in 2001–02 team (called the Wheat Kings) as twelve-year-olds, leading them to the North Dakota State Hockey championship.

Afterwards they accepted a scholarship to Shattuck-St. Mary's School in Minnesota, the same school at which Sidney Crosby played.

In her freshman year (2004–05), she accumulated 102 points (47 goals, 55 assists) in 60 games.

In the following season she had 137 points (68 goals, 69 assists) in 59 games to place second on the team in points and first in goals.

She ended up being a four-time USA Hockey Player Development Camp attendee (2004–07).

The Lamoureux sisters led the school to four state titles and three national championships (2005, 2006, and 2007).

The hat trick was the first by a North Dakota player since Cami Wooster in 2005.

Her first exposure to USA Hockey was at the USA Hockey Player Development Camp.

In 2006–07 she ranked second on the team with 131 points (65 goals, 66 assists), and tallied 107 points (42 goals, 65 assists) in 27 games as a senior.

As a freshman in 2008–09, she finished second on the team and fourth in the nation with 65 points (28 goals, 37 assists).

The Gophers appeared in the NCAA Women's Frozen Four.

At season's end, she was earned All-WCHA First Team and All-WCHA Rookie Team honors.

She was a two-time USA Hockey Women's National Festival participant (2008–09) and a member of the United States Women's Under-22 Select Team for the 2008 Under-22 Series.

She led the team with two goals.

Lamoureux also participated as a two-time member of the United States Women's Select Team for the Four Nations Cup (1st 2008, 2nd 2006).

In 2009 Jocelyne and her sister transferred from Minnesota to North Dakota.

Their transfer to their home state was attributed to the fact that North Dakota hired Brian Idalski, a former coach at the USA Hockey Development Camps.

Along with her sister, she was a member of the United States Women's National Team for the 2009 International Ice Hockey Federation World Women's Championship that won the gold medal.

Jocelyne and her sister Monique were the first set of twins ever to play women's ice hockey in the Olympics.

Lamoureux-Davidson also won silver medals for the United States women's national ice hockey team at the 2010 and 2014 Winter Olympics.

Lamoureux played one season of NCAA hockey for the University of Minnesota and three for the University of North Dakota.

She competed for a year with the Professional Women's Hockey Players Association, a worker's union pushing for equality in the sport, and retired from playing in 2021.

After her retirement, Monique and her twin sister published their first book Dare to Make History.

The sisters also founded the Lamoureux Foundation, which funds educational and extracurricular programs for children in need, primarily in their home state of North Dakota.

Jocelyne and her twin sister were both all-state in ice hockey as teenagers.

On October 23, 2010, she had a hat trick and one assist against Minnesota State.

In addition, one of her goals was the game-winning goal.

Lamoureux was named to the roster for the 2010 Four Nations Cup.

Jocelyne has been to the Olympics three times: in 2010, 2014, and 2018.

Team USA won silver medals in 2010 and 2014 and a gold medal in 2018, all three tournaments skating against Canada.

In the opening match of the 2012 IIHF World Women's Championships, Lamoureux scored three goals while assisting on three others in a 9–2 win over Canada.

Her sister, Monique Lamoureux-Kolls, and Hilary Knight each scored twice.

She scored the game-winning shootout goal to win the gold medal for Team USA at the 2018 Winter Olympics against Canada after her twin sister Monique tied the game near the end of regulation.

In the gold medal game of the 2018 Winter Olympics, Jocelyne scored the game-winning goal in the first extra round of the shootout after the preliminary five rounds, and 20 minutes of overtime, were not decisive.

Goaltender Maddie Rooney then stopped Meghan Agosta to seal the gold medal for Team USA, their first in twenty years.

Jocelyne's twin sister Monique had tied the game near the end of regulation.

In Team USA's preliminary round match against the Olympic Athletes from Russia of the 2018 Olympics, she scored two goals six seconds apart, an Olympic record for shortest time between goals by anyone, men or women.
