Who are Team America’s speed skaters at the 2022 Olympics?

One of the first heartwarming moments of the 2022 Winter Olympics came during the speed skating test in early January.

That’s when Team America speed skater Brittany Bowe, three-time gold medalist and favorite in the 1000m and 1500m, gave her teammate her spot in the 500m. Erin Jackson. Jackson, the highest-ranked speed skater in the 500m, slipped in the trials and trailed Bowe and first-time track athlete Kimi Goetz, ineligible for the Olympics. But Jackson will still have a golden opportunity thanks to her longtime and native friend and mentor, Bowe friend and mentor, Fla.

“Erin won the right to join this 500m team,” Bowe said. “She’s ranked number one in the world and there’s no one more deserving than her for a chance to take home a medal for Team America.”

Joey Mantia, also of Ocala, is a favorite in the 1500m and all-start golds. He will also join the pursuit of the group.

The men’s team also includes Jordan Stolz, a 17-year-old who was a breakout star of the US Trials as he transitioned from future prospect to medal contender. Stolz will compete in the distances of 500m and 1000m.
