An East-Bay woman is headed to the Olympic Games in Paris this summer. She'll be the youngest woman ever to represent Team USA in wrestling at the 2024 games. 20-year-old Amit Elor of Walnut Creek has proven to be a stand-out athlete as a wrestler throughout middle and high school and beyond. Historically, women are underrepresented in wrestling, but this well-heeled athlete is going for the gold this summer, getting ready to compete in the Olympics .
She said, "I wrestled in three world championships all within three months, which was awesome!"Then last year, she did it again. "In 2023, I did the same thing, and here I am, in an Olympic year, and hopefully I’ll win a medal for the US." She attributes her success to the support she’s received from her family, her mother in particular, who drove her all around the Bay Area to attend wrestling meets and matches.
