  This is one of the finest young ladies in this country and would represent this country with honor and dignity. The usopc and it’s so called leader & leadership should be a-shame. What happen to “supporting the athletes” you spoke of a spring? Is this it ?

  I’m so thankful for people like you who make their stories known to create a more viable path behind them. But. It shouldn’t be like this.
