From Olympia to Olympian

23 Jul

Need somebody to root for in the upcoming London Olympics? Well Tom Rohrer of ThurstonTalk.com last week and Meg Wochnick of The Olympian yesterday each tell the tale of Capital High School alum Brodie Buckland and his journey from Olympia to Australia to the 2012 Summer Olympics. Buckland will compete for Australia in the men’s pairs rowing competition starting Saturday with Beijing silver medalist James Marburg. The men’s pairs results page can be found here.
