Olympic Gold Medalist Ellie Logan of Boothbay is getting ready to defend it with here teammates.  The eights is the glamour boat. Ellie is the stronger rower on a boat that seems to be the favorite by all accounts.  However, the field is very competitive.  Ellie is 24 and has changed enormously over the last four years. She is such an impressive athlete.  I know it's only four years, but 24 seems so much more mature than 20! She is a wonderful person and a talented athlete who thinks she may have three more Olympics in her!  Go Ellie!
