Mellisa Hollingsworth – 2006 Olympic Bronze Medalist – Skeleton

Mellisa is one of Molson Fund a Champion athlete recipient. Mellisa’s World Cup season leading up to the 2006 Olympic Winter Games redefined the term “hot streak”. After lengthy discussions with her coach during the off-season, and mapping out a new competitive strategy, the 27-year-old from Eckville, Alberta, kicked off the pivotal season by winning her first World Cup in 10 years of racing, and became the first athlete in the history of the sport to never finish out of the top three for the rest of the year. Mellisa headed to Torino for the 2006 Olympic Winter Games, where she slid to a historic bronze-medal finish, after winning the Overall World Cup title. Gutsy, courageous and determined, Mellisa is proud of this huge accomplishment, but her competitive goals are not yet achieved. Mellisa is poised to win gold at home in 2010.

    training indoors for an outdoor sport, yet there “isn’t a lot of support for her training ,,,”

    Let the University Prof’s pay her way, that way our elite can “pay their own way.”

    Just watched her post race interview.. no excuses, took it really hard and was a total champ the way she faced it head-on and handled it. If every athlete of ours were like her, we’d be ok..
