NANTERRE, Australia (AP) — While some of the biggest names in American swimming have faltered, Torri Huske has claimed a starring role at the Paris Olympics.
The 21-year-old Virginian picked up her second gold of the Summer Games, anchoring the U.S. team to a world record in the 4x100-meter mixed medley relay Saturday night.
She also has two silver medals to help ease the sting of swimmers such as Caeleb Dressel, Simone Manuel and Ryan Murphy coming up short of expectations.
Huske will have a shot at one more medal on the final night of swimming when she takes part in the women's 4x100 medley relay.
