Six percent of high school athletes make it to play their sport at the collegiate level. Of those, one percent make it to the professional ranks. Even less can say they competed in the Olympics.

Bridget Sloan accomplished the goals she set as a third grader- to become an Olympic gymnast. At an early age she achieved both great success and great heartbreak in front of a world wide audience.

In this episode of The Good Network we hear Bridget's story. From being a hyper kid in Indian, to Beijing China, to one of the most decorated gymnasts in the history of the University of Florida Bridget never lost sight of the vision she had as a 10 year old.
