Sarah Hildebrandt


She grew up wrestling with her six siblings and said that training with her brother means more time to focus on what she needs going into the Paris Games.

"He’s here for me," she said. "The other girls in the room have themselves to get ready for. I can do all the reps. I can focus on my problems so selfishly. It’s beneficial."

At the Tokyo Games, she wrestled with disappointment after coming away with bronze. She said it took a long time to heal and come to terns with how those Games went.

Now in Paris, she’s focused on the physical and the mental side of wrestling.

"I think those details are what separates a bronze and gold medal because everyone works hard, but how comfortable are you up here when it’s you up against another person for a gold medal," she said.
