    Former Lady Vols’ swimmer Erika Connolly (formerly Brown) won her third Olympic medal on Saturday at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, France.

    Connolly was a member of Team USA’s 4×100-meter freestyle relay team, which won a silver medal.

    Connolly, who won two medals in the 2024 Tokyo Games, became the first Lady Vol to win three Olympic medals. She joins Tennessee’s Melvin Stewart as the only two Tennessee swimmers to win three Olympic medals.

    Connolly was a member of Team USA’s 4×100-meter freestyle relay team that finished second in 2024. She also won a bronze medal with the 4×100-meter medley relay in Tokyo.
