A 21-year-old Chandler woman has become the first Arizonan to make an Olympic hockey team ever. Lyndsey Fry has her bags packed and is all set to head to the Sochi 2014 Winter Games to represent Team USA.

"I fell in love with the "Mighty Ducks" movie when I was four years old," said Fry.

That love, is still going strong for Fry, who’s currently in Boston training.

She says the big news is yet to sink in. "No, and I don't know if it ever will," she says.

"You do kind of have to pinch yourself and remember where we're going to be headed in three weeks."

Lyndsey's been on the ice since kindergarten, and after 15 years of lacing up, her determination paid off.

"Yeah, I had a friend tell me that it probably will hit me when all of this is over," she says, "And I’m sitting on my couch in Arizona in March and just go 'holy cow! All of that just happened.'"
