Much improved performances in athletics and swimming compared to 3 years ago. It feels like Tokyo was the Aurelie Rivard and Brent Lakatos show while this year, the medals have been more spread out.

4th for Brianna Hennessy and for our women’s wheelchair basketball team. Game isn’t over but the lead is too much to overcome.
