U.S. mixed doubles curling

Plys got his first taste of Olympic action in 2010. He went to Vancouver as an alternate, but got the rare opportunity to get in a game in place of Shuster as the team shuffled its lineup to try and generate some momentum. The 34-year-old from Duluth will now get his second Olympic shot 12 years later. Of late, Plys has been a part of two national championship teams and a mixed doubles national title earlier this year. Plys and partner Vicky Persinger also won the 2021 U.S. mixed doubles curling trials and will have their chance to qualify in that discipline as well at a December tournament.
