Very good read and short article on Foluke's rise to be arguably the best middle in the world, and her Olympic journey. In the article and I am paraphrasing here says that the silver lining in winning silver in London was that she decided to continue her volleyball career. She says had they won Gold she probably would have quit volleyball to pursue med school and a career as a physician. Lucky for us we got four more years of her and here we are in 2016. It's nice that she is a consensus player for Team USA as there is so much debate at other positions no one thinks Foluke should not be on our team. We get to revel in her greatness for what will probably be her last Olympic Games. I hope they win Gold and every game here on in maybe Foluke's last in a Team USA uniform. pac-12.com/article/2016/08/12/2016-olympics-former-stanford-star-foluke-akinradewo-leads-team-usa-volleyball

I hope USA wins the gold. All the women on this team deserve it, especially Foluke.

Foluke should have been in Beijing over Tamas. This should be her 3rd olympics...
