CLEVELAND — On the floor of the Huntington Convention Center Thursday a women's volleyball team from Brazil took advantage of the opportunity to get some practice in after their flight ahead of the start of competition Friday in the Pan American Masters Games. They are among the 4,000 athletes from 75 countries that are converging on Cleveland for 10 days of competition in more than two dozen sports.
We caught up with 85-year-old Abdon Ulloa, who may have been walking slowly, but you should see him run. The Convention Center will be home to a half dozen or so events, including volleyball, table tennis and badminton, with others taking place all over the region that are free and open to the public to watch.
