We're less than one month away from the 2008 Olympics, which are being held in Beijing. To prepare you for the event, we are previewing the US Women's teams. Today, our emphasis is on the US Women's Archery team. (NOTE: I couldn't find any photos of the US team themselves, so this will be sufficient for now.)
The women's team had an uneventful time at the last Olympic games in Athens. This time however, the team will only be sending two to Beijing.
Jennifer Nichols made her second straight Olympic games. In 2004, she finished in ninth place, the best finish among the American women in the individual event.
Khatuna Lorig is the only other American competitor in these games. Lorig is competing in her fourth Olympic games, as well as her third different country. She competed for the countries of Georgia and the Soviet Union. She's now a U.S. citizen and looks to bring medals back to her new home.
