Murray's Olympic Family Ties

The following article featuring former Cornells standout Douglas Murray appeared December 27 on the San Jose Sharks Web site.

 

When Team Sweden announced their picks for the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, Douglas Murray was very happy to be part of the group. He heard the news at his San Jose home from his parents who are currently visiting.

“They (Team Sweden) hadn’t told me at all,” said Murray. “I got woken up by my parents at 5:15 (in the morning). We talked the night before and it was fine to wake me. I could see on their faces what they knew.”

Murray and his parents had an agreement that they were allowed to wake him only if there was good news and there was clearly a lot of joy in the house.
