LI Olympics Watch - Emily Caruso

From the Waterbury, CT Republican-American:

America’s best hope for a medal in women’s shooting might also be its smallest Olympian.

Fairfield native Emily Caruso stands just 5-foot-2, but she’s been a big shot in her sport for the past eight years, winning the national championship in the women’s 10-meter air rifle event five times.

...

Caruso, 29, isn’t your average shooter. She doesn’t hunt (although she doesn’t oppose doing it for food) and is a vegetarian (partly because she’s lactose intolerant).

Of course, some members of the women's gymnastics team are much shorter, but let's not hold that against her. And she's also 31, having been born in 1977. But I'm sure that the rest of the article contains many sentences that are correct.
