Career
Monique Lamoureux and her twin sister Jocelyne were among the most outstanding young players in North Dakota and were regularly selected for the national selection. They played together for the Peewee A team ( Wheat Kings ) and won the national championship for their age group when they were twelve. They then received a scholarship at Shattuck-St. Mary's School in Minnesota, the same school Sidney Crosby attended. With Shattuck-St. Mary's, the Lamoureux sisters won the U19 national championships in 2005, 2006 and 2007 and have always been among the most productive players on their team.

She was also the top scorer of the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA) and was named the division's Rookie of the Year . She was also the only rookie to be nominated for the Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award .
North Dakota Fighting Sioux
In 2009, Lamoureux and her sister moved from Minnesota to the University of North Dakota . The background to this change was the commitment of Brian Idalski as a new coach at UND, who was previously employed by USA Hockey . Due to the college change, the twins were not eligible to play in the NCAA in the 2009/10 season and therefore concentrated on preparing for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver . During the 2010/11 season she moved from the forward to the defensive position, but was also able to assert herself there.
After completing her studies, she was selected by the Boston Blades in 2014 and played for them in the 2014/15 season in the Canadian Women's Hockey League (CWHL). At the end of the season she won the Clarkson Cup with the Blades . Since this success she no longer plays (semi-) professionally ice hockey, but works as a junior coach and since 2016 as an assistant coach at the UND. She also played regularly (friendship) games for the Minnesota Whitecaps .
International
Together with her twin sister, Monique Lamoureux took part in the USA Hockey Development Camp four times between 2004 and 2007 . In 2008 she was appointed to the US U-22 team and played a series of friendly matches with it. In 2009 she and Jocelyne were called up for the first time for a world championship , where they won the gold medal with the women's national team . At her first Winter Olympics in Vancouver in 2010 , she scored four goals and six assists, helping her team win the silver medal. In the 2011 world championships , which were held in Switzerland , she won the gold medal again and was named the best striker herself.
