Every 4 years is a time for American’s to come together and celebrate our passion, patriotism, and strength. And I don’t mean the election. The 2024 Paris Summer Olympics and Paralympics mark a time when we all come together and support athletes from all over the United States who have the honor to represent our country on the world stage.
And while we know Florida to be a hotbed for athletics, just check the hometowns of your favorite NFL team’s roster, it should come as no surprise the state ranks second in number of athletes representing the US on the Olympic stage this year. With 46 athletes from all over the state and participating in sports ranging from skateboarding, to equestrian, rugby, and more, Floridians should take pride in the contingent headed over the Atlantic.
Here is a listing of all 46 athletes taking on the world:
Perry Baker (Rugby - Daytona Beach, FL)
Aaliyah Butler (Track and Field - Fort Lauderdale, FL)
Danielle Collins (Tennis - St. Petersburg, FL)
