Trump honored the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team with Congressional Gold Medals for their Cold War "Miracle on Ice" victory.
President Donald Trump awarded Congressional Gold Medals to members of the 1980 U.S. Olympic men’s hockey team at a White House ceremony on December 12, 2025, recognizing their historic "Miracle on Ice" victory over the Soviet Union.
The team, made up of amateur and college players, defeated the heavily favored Soviets 4-3 in the semifinals, then beat Finland to win gold.
The win, a symbol of national pride during the Cold War, was honored through a bipartisan law passed earlier in the year.
Attendees included Mike Eruzione, Jim Craig, Buzz Schneider, and family members of coach Herb Brooks.
The medals mark the first time the team has received the nation’s highest civilian honor.
