From Me to You
My Olympic Hero

Jennifer Azzi
Awesome basketball player

Brandi Chastain
My Olympic hero is Brandi Chastain because she plays defender like me. When I get old, I want to be able to kick as far as she can.

Amy Chow
I'm voting for Amy Chow because she is truly an inspiration. For her just getting on the team showed who she was. She hit her head and fell off the beam during the Olympic Trials, and instead of giving up she got back up and finished the routine with one of her eyes starting to swell shut!

Michael Johnson
He's the fastest person ever and I want gold shoes, too!

Marion Jones
Marion Jones is my Olympic Hero because she is the fastest women in the world. Nobody can catch her.

Michael Klim
Because he resembles everything great about an australian athlete. Power, courage and a never say die attitude

Jonny Moseley
He is a great sport when he plays in the OLYMPICS, and he is not a poor sport if he loses. He is also nice on the T.V. I've watched him win 1st place a few times.

Jonny Mosley
My Olympic hero is Jonny Mosley because he can ski and jump!

Johan olaf kas
Although he is not an american olympian, he is by far one of the worlds best olympians. In the 1994 olympics he conquered the speed skating events. He is a great athlete and therefore my favorite olympian.

Logan Tom
She is one of the world's best volleyball players. At age 16 she was training with the national team, at 19 she was in Sydney playing for the olympic team. She returns to Stanford to lead the cardinal to an NCAA championship. Logan Tom is truely a remarkable player. And she's only just begun.
