"In their fifth and fourth Olympic appearances, respectively, Knight and Bowe return for their Olympic finales side by side hoping to put a golden flourish on their careers. Knight, 36, and Bowe, 37, have nine combined Olympic appearances and six Olympic medals. Bowe, who races in the women's 500 meters on Sunday, has Olympic bronze medals in the team pursuit and the 1,000 meters and holds the world record in her signature distance."
"Knight, who powered the United States into Monday's Olympic semifinal, is one of the most accomplished female hockey players in the world: an Olympic gold medal, three Olympic silvers and 10 world championship medals. She has the most Olympic appearances for any U.S. hockey player and is tied for the U.S. record for Olympic goals with 14. That doesn't even include her work in the founding of the Professional Women's Hockey League."
