a u.s. olympian

So I totally know one of the US Olympic team members! Brett Newlin is his name. He and I were friends in high school- he was from Riverton but we went to Ireland together. I remember him as this really tall goofy kid and one of the nicest boys I knew. I just saw a picture of him in the paper and he's still really tall- 6 foot 7 inches- but I would've never recognized him! He has grown into his body just a bit. :) He is a member of the 4-man rowing team. I can't wait to watch it on TV during the Olympics. I have a feeling though, that it is one of those events that is on at 3:00 in the morning. :)
