TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Connecticut’s connection to the big USWNT Olympic win today
Big win today for the U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team at the Summer Olympics today as they defeated The Netherlands 4-2 in a penalty kick shoot out to advance the to Semifinal round.
Connecticut should be proud as Stratford’s very own Alyssa Naeher, the USWNT goalie, made two HUGE saves during the shoot-out to secure the win. Yeah Alyssa! Congrats to the whole team… now let’s bring home that gold medal.
Huge shout-out to shootout hero and Connecticut native @AlyssaNaeher, whose two penalty kick saves against the Olympics top goal scorer helped the @USWNT advance to the semifinals. ⚽️

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Why do Olympic divers shower after every dive?
If you’ve been watching any of the diving events in the summer Olympics you’ve probably noticed one interesting thing that every diver does. They shower in between dives. But why?!
I thought it might have been to wash the chlorine and chemicals off? But that’s not it at all. The pool water is very cold and can easily make you cramp up, so they take a warm shower or sit in the hot tub between dives to keep their muscles loose. Now, why can’t they just make the pool water warmer? I guess that is a decision that gets made by people who are much more qualified than us.

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Westport woman saves the day for newly married couple
Stories like this are great for teaching us that it’s always smart to do the right thing when you find any sort of money or belongings someone may have lost.
23-year-old Gabrielle Perry from Westport recently found a card on the ground with $500 inside of it. She was heading to dinner in South Norwalk when she came across the envelope that read “Thank you for marrying us. From Christina and Dave”. She put 2 and 2 together and quickly realized this couple had lost the gift for the person who married them.
Thanks to a quick Google search of their names she found their wedding website and registry which helped her contact them and get the gift card back. The couple thought it was lost forever so as you can imagine they were very excited to get it back.

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: How deep are the Olympic pools?
Let’s keep the Olympic theme going for today’s mystery… how deep are the pools in the Summer Olympics?
The regular swimming pools for the swimming events in Tokyo are almost 10 feet deep. Pretty standard. The diving pools which obviously need to be deeper are between 10 and 16 feet depending on the event. The high dive uses the deepest part. I would hope so!
