Every Olympic Games there is usually one athlete or team, that does something special, that we’ll remember and talk about for years to come. 

For some it may be Peter Snell, Carl Lewis, or Usain Bolt, for others it may be Nadia Comaneci, the Evers Swindell twins, or Marion Jones.

Our athletes also have Olympians they look up to and admire.  Here are some of our athletes, including rower Ruby Tew, pole vaulter Eliza McCartney, and weight lifter Richie Patterson talking about who they regard as their Olympic hero.
