If an athlete medals in an event and no one watches, does it still bring glory?
This question became more than just metaphorical musing when I discovered today that there are a handful of sports in the Olympics that I had no idea were included or had no idea people cared about.
In everything from rhythmic gymnastics to handball, there are people who dedicate their lives to events that fly under the radar, and many of these "athletes" are college students.
Here are a few scholars who make education and obscure sports their passion:
Jackie Lee: This table tennis player is studying architecture at Berkeley. She is an alternate on the U.S. team, but she could be in if a teammate gets injured. For her sake, I hope someone sprains a finger so she can jump in and give it all she’s got.
Eva Lee: A student at UC-Irvine, Lee has already been eliminated from the women’s singles badminton competition. However, she still has a chance at the women’s doubles and mixed doubles. For this sport, which revolves around a shuttlecock (I am so mature), Lee says they train intensely, doing long distance running, sprints and weight lifting.
Stephen Scherer: It’s a good thing he’s skilled with a gun, since this athlete (?) is heading for the military. He’s a freshman at the United States Military Academy and recently competed in the Men’s 10m Air Rifle Final, though he didn’t medal in the event.
Rosannagh MacLennan: At the University of Toronto, MacLennan studies physical education and health, hoping to pursue a career in sports medicine one day. But first she must compete in the trampoline event, which I admit sounds like the most fun of all Olympic sports.
