美国轮椅冰壶运动员劳拉·德怀尔和史蒂夫·埃姆特参加了2026年意大利科尔蒂纳丹佩佐冬残奥会首届混双项目比赛。这对组合在铜牌争夺战中以10比11惜败拉脱维亚,比赛进入加时,最终位列第四。两位运动员对自己的表现和代表国家参赛的机会表示自豪。

来自威斯康星州拉克拉贝尔的劳拉·德怀尔和史蒂夫·埃姆特代表美国队参加了2026年冬残奥会轮椅冰壶混双的历史性首秀。比赛在意大利科尔蒂纳丹佩佐举行,运动员们尽管面临个人挑战,但仍在全球舞台上展现了他们的技能。 德怀尔是两个孩子的母亲,因受伤使用轮椅约14年,她通过一份适应性诊所传单发现了冰壶运动。在受伤前,她在农场长大,从事景观园艺工作,并在大学打排球,高中时担任投手。“当我开始打冰壶时,我又感受到那种感觉,所有人的目光都集中在你身上,”德怀尔说。“你必须让这件事发生。” 埃姆特在25岁时因酒驾事故(他为司机)而瘫痪,他曾是康涅狄格大学的无奖篮球运动员。由教练托尼·卡拉乔招募,他成为三届残奥运动员,首次参赛于2018年韩国。“这项运动,我总是说,它没有拯救我的生命,但它绝对改变了我的生活,”埃姆特说。 在周三对阵拉脱维亚的铜牌赛中,德怀尔和埃姆特将比赛拖入加时,但以10-11惜败,让拉脱维亚夺得铜牌。“昨晚我们打了一场艰苦的比赛。我还有点疼,”埃姆特反思道。“我们差一点就把奖牌带回家了。我们很想带回家。”尽管结果如此,两人都强调了韧性。“在生活中,有赢有学。那个输字不在我们的词汇里,”埃姆特补充道。 德怀尔称这次经历是梦想成真,她的家人也在意大利。“这是世界上最好的机会,向他人展示努力追求目标的样子,”她对美联社说。“残奥会是顶尖中的顶尖。来到这里意味着你做到了。” 展望未来,这对组合计划于周一返回美国。埃姆特将恢复公开演讲,进行约52场高中演讲,主题是酒驾的危害。德怀尔计划访问学校,分享她的故事和团队的进展。两人都鼓励面对受伤的人保持活跃并找到目标。“不是发生在你身上的事,而是你决定如何处理它,”埃姆特说。
