2020 is an OLYMPIC YEAR!
As you may (or may not) know, we’ve got some 2020 Olympic hopefuls, training both at home and away to earn a spot in the upcoming summer Games. Casey Howshall and Chet Bickhart are training to compete for the lightweight men’s double event down at a training camp in Texas. Meanwhile, up north we have two lightweight women's doubles training hard for a chance to make the 2020 team: Jillian Zieff and Margy Bertasi, and Liz Martin and Makayla Karr-Warner. Read on below to hear more about each of these doubles’ experiences training for the 2020 Olympic Trials. The trials will take place in Sarasota, Florida at Nathan Benderson Park from March 16-March 21, 2020.
As these athletes vie for the opportunity to represent Riverside on the world and Olympic stage, please consider supporting them through the Worlds Athlete Fund.
