🏒 What does it actually feel like to get the call that you’ve made Team USA?

In this unforgettable episode of Our Girls Play Hockey, hosts Lee Elias, Mike Bonelli, and Hayley Scamurra sit down with Boston Fleet rookie and newly named Team USA Olympian Haley Winn to talk about the moment her childhood dream became reality.

From backyard battles with her three older brothers to the USA Hockey Development Program, starring at Clarkson University, and now playing professionally in the PWHL — Haley’s journey is a masterclass in discipline, confidence, and trusting the process.

And yes… she just scored her first PWHL goal. 👏

But this conversation goes far deeper than stats.

✨ Haley opens up about:

The mental shift required to move up each level of USA Hockey
What “process goals” really mean — and how they fueled her Olympic path
Balancing Division I academics and elite hockey at Clarkson
The jump from college to the PWHL and adjusting to pro-level physicality
Representing the United States on the world’s biggest stage 🇺🇸
Handling success with humility when others fall short

Hayley Scamurra also shares powerful insight from her own Olympic experience — including what it’s really like to walk into Opening Ceremonies and feel the weight (and privilege) of representing your country.

💬 One of our favorite takeaways:

“If you hold onto the outcome too tightly, it moves further away. Focus on the day-to-day, and it’ll come to you.”

For every girl dreaming of the Olympics… for every parent wondering what it truly takes… this episode is your blueprint.
