Swimming Adds Another Olympian as Madarassy Makes the Cut
July 14, 2008
Senior swimmer Adam Madarassy has become the third Cardinal to make the Beijing Olympics when he qualified in the 100-meter butterfly for his native country of Hungary at their trials late last week. Madarassy, a BIG EAST champion and NCAA participant, will join teammates Vali Preda (Romania) and Andrei Radzionau (Belarus) in Beijing. Also on deck will be U of L head coach Arthur Albiero, who will be on the Romanian coaching staff. "Participating in the Olympic Games is the pinnacle of our sport. I am especially proud that three of our very own Cardinals will be competing in Beijing. Madarassy swept both the 100- and 200-fly at the BIG EAST Championship. He was also on the championship 200- and 400-medley relay and the 200 and 400-free relay teams.
