Boston College alum Erika Reineke (‘17) will compete in the 2024 Paris Olympic Games as a part of the USA’s sailing team.
During her time in Chestnut Hill, the 30-year-old majored in Environmental Studies and won four individual national championships as well as NEISA Conference Sailor of the Year awards.
Reineke will compete in the women’s dinghy race on August 1 in Marseille, France.
"I came in as a free-spirited freshman with no plan or structure and graduated gaining the ability to goal set and execute,” said Reineke while speaking to Alix Hackett on her time as an Eagle. “I wouldn’t be in the position I am today without my BC teammates or Coach [Greg] Wilkinson.”
Countdown to Boston College football’s season opener:
41 days.
