Amanda Kraus speaks with Blake Haxton, Hallie Smith and Charley Nordin as they prepare for the Tokyo 2020 Paralympics.
Blake Haxton is Team USA's two-sport star for the Tokyo Paralympics. Blake Haxton will compete in rowing and sprint canoe. At Rio 2016 Paralympics he finished fourth and his teammates and coaches voted him USRowing's ‘Male Athlete of the Year’ - the first para-athlete to achieve this honour.
Hallie Smith will make her Paralympic debut at Tokyo 2020. World medallist Smith has represented the US at three consecutive world rowing championships and won the gold medal at the 2018 World Rowing Indoor Championships.
Charley Nordin is a two-time world championship silver medallist and a world cup winner and will make his Paralympic debut at Tokyo in the mixed coxed four. He hopes to usurp the British dynasty in this boat class.
