Asher Hong, Fred Richard, Brody Malone, Paul Juda, and Stephen Nedoroscik make up the five-man team representing Team USA.
Asher Hong is headed to the Paris Olympics, which will be his first. Right after he realized it, he said he still couldn’t believe it.
“I don’t know; it doesn’t really feel real right now. I’m speechless,” Hong said after the team was announced.Asher Hong, 20, who helped the U.S. win a team bronze at the 2023 world championships, is currently a sophomore at Stanford University in California. He trains in Houston and was born in Plano.“I think the sports culture down there is pretty big. I’m not too much of a sports guy myself, but the athlete support down there is awesome.
Hong also said the atmosphere in the Target Center was electric, helping many of the athletes stay mentally in it. For the final round for the men, more than 14,100 fans showed up. Some of them were Hong’s family. He said having them there to support him was invaluable.
