2012 Olympics: Who are you following?

Griff · 02-20-2012, 08:43 AM

I'm watching for Troy Nickerson who wrestled for my SiL's brother in high school. He was an awesome high school wrestler, but injuries cost him at Cornell. He has a great shot of making team USA in April.

I will also be following USA fencing pretty close. Mariel Zagunis will be getting a lot of face time as a returning champion in sabre. This will be interesting because she's always been successful being the underdog. Now we'll see how she handles top billing. Seth Kelsey fences my weapon, epee. I really don't like his style very much. It is ugly and effective.
