DULUTH, Minn. – The curling talents of Chris Plys have taken him all over the world, including to the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. But the Duluth native has decided the journey will be coming to an end very soon.

In an Instagram post this week, Plys says: “I think this next Olympic cycle will be my last of chasing this dream”.
