And now, the news.
Good news first!
Elana Meyers Taylor, age 41, became the oldest athlete to win a gold medal in the Winter Olympics for the USA. Congratulations! (Not from PA, but still good news.)
Summer Britcher from Glen Rock, PA, had the best reaction after not winning a medal:
“I’m proud of the work that I put in to get here,” Britcher said. “A year ago, no one would have guessed that I would have even had a chance at a medal, so to be standing here heartbroken is a privilege.”
