TRIBE AT THE OLYMPICS
The Rio Olympics start on Friday, Aug. 5,
and will air on NBC. The following is a list
of confirmed Jewish Rio-bound athletes,
other than Israelis. Fuller bios can be
found online.
American: Eli Dershwitz, 20, indi-
vidual saber fencing. This Massachusetts
native just finished his sophomore
year at Harvard. Nate Ebner, 27, rugby
sevens. Ebner is now most famous for
his outstanding special team play with
the NFL Boston Patriots, but he was an
outstanding high-school rugby player.
He inquired about playing rugby in the
Olympics this past April, and while the
coach was skeptical, Ebner surprised
him with his play and game smarts and
he made the team — which is given a
good chance to medal. Anthony Ervin,
35, 50m freestyle swimming. Ervin, the
son of a Jewish mother and an African
American father, won a gold medal
(50m) in 2000. In 2010, he began training
again and made the 2012 team. He’s the
oldest American male Olympic swim-
mer since 1904. Jennifer and Monica
Rokhman are 19-year-old identical
twins who compete in rhythmic gym-
