#Tokyo2020 – Kiwi Style

Two stories today about a pair of New Zealand Hoos doing great things at the Olympics. First up, congratulations to Hannah Osborne who rowed her way to a silver medal in the women’s double sculls, just the second medal for New Zealand so far in Tokyo. The clip above shows her watching her dad’s reaction to her medalling. Here is a great article telling her story from a website in her home nation.

Another Kiwi, @UVAMensSoccer’s Joe Bell, has helped the men’s soccer team advance to its first-ever Olympic quarterfinal. Bell started all of the pool play games for NZ.
