Christopher Plys (born August 13, 1987 in Duluth, Minnesota) has been curling since 1998. Chris curls out of the Duluth Curling Club in Minnesota (teamplys.com) with Aanders Brorson, Matt Perushek, and Matt Hamilton. He has been in six State Curling Championships, taking first in the years 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009. By doing this, it allowed Chris to advance to the national level championships, the title in which he has won for four straight years (2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009) (usacurl.org). Chris has made his way up the platform at the Junior Men’s World Curling Championships. In 2006, Chris took 9th place in Jeonju, South Korea. The next year, in 2007, Chris took 5th place in Eveleth, Minnesota. And finally in 2008, Chris won the gold medal in Ostersund, Sweden (usacurl.org). Chris has also competed at the World University Games in 2007, in Pinerolo Italy. He played second on the John Shuster team and they won the gold. Chris currently holds the record for the most United States Junior National Championships by a skip (usacurl.org). Chris has been chosen to be the alternate on the 2010 US Olympic team, and will be representing the United States in February at the Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver, B.C. He is now happily engaged.
