Ohioans in the 2010 Winter Olympics

Let's take a break from politics to honor the Ohioans who are on the 2010 U.S. Winter Olympics Team (from the Plain Dealer):

Jamie Moriarty, Pepper Pike, pusher on two-man bobsled USA-3, which is competing this weekend.

Brianne McLaughlin, guard on the hockey team, Sheffield Village
Kelli Stack, forward on the hockey team, Brooklyn Heights
The women's hockey team will compete in the semifinals against Sweden Monday Feb. 22.

Louie Vito was born in Columbus and grew up in nearby Bellefontaine. He moved to Vermont as a teenager to train as snowboarder. He finished 5th in the halfpipe.

I dream of them marching into the stadium behind the Burgee* at the 2014 Winter Olympics!
