USA women's hockey player Jessie Vetter grew up in Madison dreaming of someday representing her country in the Olympics. So far in Vancouver, she has two shutouts and her American team looks good as gold.

Vetter grew up in Cottage Grove, just outside of Madison, where she played college hockey at the University of Wisconsin. During her four years, the Badgers won three national championships and Vetter was named national player of the year in 2009.

Named to Team USA and playing for her former Badger coach Mark Johnson, Vetter wants to team up for another honor, a gold medal in the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver.
