On this episode of Our American Stories, Ralph Cox had spent years dreaming of representing the United States at the Olympics. In 1980, he came within days of doing it. Then coach Herb Brooks called him into a room and delivered the news: Cox would be the final player cut from the U.S. Olympic hockey team.
Weeks later, his former teammates pulled off the “Miracle on Ice.” Our own Greg Hengler and Ralph Cox himself share the story of what it was like to watch from the outside and how losing the dream he had built his life around ultimately changed him for the better.
