Episode What the Army Taught an Olympic Champion
In the final seconds of the 2024 Olympics Women’s Rugby 7s Bronze Medal game, the American squad came from behind for an upset victory, clinching its first-ever medal in the sport. Captain Sammy Sullivan played a huge role in the victory, and hosts LTG (Ret.) Leslie C. Smith and SMA (Ret.) Dan Dailey sit down with her to discuss her journey from Army Brat to eventual Olympic champion, the role of the Army in her success, and how a certain brick-building toy provides the ultimate relaxation tool.
Guest: Captain Samantha "Sammy" Sullivan, U.S. Army Olympian
