Jincy Rose Roese (née Dunne; born May 15, 1997) is a women's ice hockey player for PWHL Ottawa of the Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL) and a member of the United States national team. She represented the USA at the 2022 Winter Olympics.

Playing career

Following four seasons as a member of the Ohio State Buckeyes women's hockey program, Roese was drafted in the third round of the 2023 PWHL Draft by Ottawa.[1]

International play

Roese made her international debut with the United States women's national ice hockey team at the 2012 4 Nations Cup, making her first appearance on November 6, 2012, against Sweden. She would play in three games as the United States claimed the gold medal. Roese was also a member of the American team at the 2013 4 Nations Cup, but did not play.[citation needed]

Roese was a member of the United States women's national under-18 ice hockey team and has played in three IIHF World Women's U18 Championships. At the 2013 event, she led the team with a plus 11 rating and was selected as one of Team USA's three best players by team coaches.[2] The youngest player on Team USA, she collected the silver medal after losing to Team Canada in the final.[3]

Preceding the 2014 Winter Olympics, Roese was a member of the 25-player preliminary roster but was cut when it had to be trimmed to 21. She would have been the youngest female hockey player to skate in the Winter Games for Team USA.[4]

She was the only player from the state of Missouri to be on the roster for the 2014 IIHF World Women's U18 Championship,[citation needed] where she captained the American team. She won the directorate award for best defensemen of the tournament, and was named one of Team USA's best players.[5]

For the 2015 IIHF World Women's U18 Championship, Roese was once again named team captain. She would score twice in the gold medal game, and earned top defender honors for the second straight year.[6] Following the championship, on January 15, 2015, she dropped the puck in a ceremonial faceoff before a National Hockey League game between the St. Louis Blues and the Detroit Red Wings.[7]

On January 2, 2022, Roese was named to represent the United States at the 2022 Winter Olympics.[8]

Personal life

Roese is the daughter of Tom and Tammy Dunne. She has five siblings who each play hockey.[9] Her older sister Jessica and younger sister Joy also played for Ohio State.[10][11] Her younger brother Josh plays for the Cleveland Monsters of the American Hockey League (AHL).[12] Her sister Josey plays for the University of Minnesota,[13] and her brother James plays for Oklahoma State University.[14]

On June 10, 2023, she married Isaac Roese in a private ceremony in Ohio.[15]

Ahead of PWHL Ottawa's inaugural season, Roese was selected as the team's player representative with the PWHL Players Association, the league's labour union.[16]
