How are some local Olympic swimmers preparing for the Rio Olympics? An American University class found out when they spoke with swimmers Andrew Gemmell and Caylee Watson and coach Bruce Gemmell.
The Intro to Studio Television class talked to all three about their thoughts on the Olympics, gave Portuguese lessons to Bruce and Andrew Gemmell, and shared some delicious Brazilian recipes.
Watson, a swimmer at American University, and Andrew Gemmell are competing in the Olympics. Bruce Gemmell is Andrew's dad -- and an American Swimming Coach Association coach of the year winner who coaches Olympian Katie Ledecky.
