Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   On August 2, Middletown Resident, Kayla Harrison will fight to become the first American to win gold in judo at the Olympics. 

It is the result of a lifetime of sacrifice, training and at some points, dark secrets. 

Harrison is one of the favorites to win gold, but she could face the defending Olympic judo champion from China. 

"It gives me goose bumps and I can't imagine what it's going to be like if it's actually me and I'm on top of the podium," she said. "Me standing there, staring at our flag, listening to the national anthem".
