University of Washington rowing alumni set a record for our program with 11 total medals at the 2024 Paris Olympics. If "UW Rowing Alumni" were a country, it would be sitting in 12th place on the overall Olympic Medal Table. 🏅 -- bit.ly/3LRfLXg

This is the #Olympics spirit at its best:

UW's 11 rowing medals are most in program history at a single Olympics. In fact only twice before (12, in 1936 & 1984) have UW alumni won more medals in ALL sports in a single Games.
If UW Rowing was a country, it would be 11th on the medal table right now.

This victory not only adds to our personal achievements but also marks a historic moment for Croatian sports. We’re proud to become the first Croatian athletes to win four Olympic medals since our country’s independence 🇭🇷
Thank you to everyone for your unwavering support!

This might be the best Paris 2024 story: Zeng Zhiying made her Olympics debut at 58-years old.
Born in China, she is now representing Chile in table tennis because of an incredible journey.
At age 18, she expected to go to the Olympics for her birth country, China, as one of the best players in the world.
But then table tennis changed out the two-sided paddles, and her game was thrown off.
She never made the team and became incredibly frustrated with the sport. She retired from the game as a player at age 20. Shortly after, she moved to Chile and coached various table tennis teams.
Then, in 2000, she decided to get a “real job” and step away from the game. For 20 years, she didn’t play. Then, in COVID, she bought a table and started playing again.
She made it a goal to make the 2024 Olympics representing Chile. And, at age 58, she did it!
The human brain is crazy powerful, and it can prevent us from continuing something we love or help us persevere through times when the odds are heavily stacked against us.
What an inspiration to follow your dreams.
