Students Visit USA High-Performance Center

This afternoon, the students received an executive briefing and tour of the US Olympic Committee's High-Performance Training Center located at Beijing Normal University (where US Olympic athletes can train, eat, and stay in a protected environment outside the Olympic Village). Managing Director Doug Ingram (center) welcomes the group and provides an overview of the facility's operational framework, after which they toured the various sport venues and watched several athletes going through their workouts, including the women's volleyball team, coached by the Chinese volleyball legend, Lang Ping.
