RANDOM MUSINGS FROM THE TOP OF THE HILL

CINCINNATI

Because the Olympic Games are now in progress, I thought I'd ferret out the names of Cincinnatians who have competed in them and won medals.  Not only was the list rather slim, it includes no one who performed in the Winter Games.  I guess Perfect North Slopes is not quite the right venue to create Winter Olympic Athletes.  Here is about half of what I found.   Maybe we'll have more next week.

  • AMANDA BORDEN   1966   gold medal   gymnastics team

  • BRIDGET SLOAN   2008   silver medal   gymnastics team

  • DARRELL PACE   1976, 1984, 1988   gold medal    archer

  • DAVID PAYNE   2008   silver medal  110 m hurdles

  • GARY WAYNE HALL JR   1996, 2000, 2004  gold medal   swim team

  • HEATHER MITTS   2004, 2008, 2012  gold medal   soccer team

🏅🥈🥉
