North Carolina State University Student hits the Gold Medal Stage at the Rio Olympics

This news coming in from of out loyal GreensboroSports.com readers….

In last night’s 4×100 meter freestyle relay final, featuring Michael Phelps, one of the gold medal winning swimmers was Ryan Held. He was the shortest on the team and the only one to have to qualify for the race. And he is one of our own from North Carolina. He is a student at NC STATE!!!

Unfortunately, our local newspaper, Greensboro News and Record, failed to mention this important fact for our local readers! Possibly if he had been a student at UNC, it would have been mentioned. Fellow Wolfpackers- both current and alumni, are very proud of Ryan!!
GO WOLFPACK!!!!!!!!!!!!
