Moyer qualified for the 1980 Olympic team but did not compete due to the Olympic Committee's boycott of the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow, Russia. She was one of 461 athletes to receive a Congressional Gold Medal years later. When the United States hosted the Games in 1984, she once again represented her native country and was part of the bronze medal team.
She graduated from La Salle University and is currently a professor in the psychology department at Cedar Crest College in Allentown, Pennsylvania.[citation needed]
