Somos estudiantes de la escuela 22, D.E.19°: Juana Azurduy.

WRESTLING

125kg FREESTYLE

Started Competing in 2008 Olympic Games in Beijin, China

120 kg Freestyle

My favorite food and music:  Sushi, Taste good and healthy.  I like listening to 90’s hip-hop R&B music.

When I’m not training,  playing other competitive sports like Kubaddi (Indian style wresting) and basketball 

How does it make me feel going to the Olympics?  I'm extremely fortunate to get the opportunity to wrestle at the games again, but I'm not contempt with just getting in. Last time I was happy to just take part, but now I want more. It took a lot more this cycle to get in, more sacrifice, so I want a better pay out. My goal is to win.

My plans after the Games:  After the games I will be paying back for a lot of the sacrifices needed from my family, and the responsibility my wife allowed me to train around. Bills will have piled up and quality time needs to be made up for with my daughters. As for the next few years I would like to give back to Palau. Help my uncle John Tarkong with the wrestling program, maybe take over for coach KO to Promote sport and good health and spend some time on the island with my family.

SWIMMING

50KG FREESTYLE

STARTED COMPETING at the Swimming World Championships, the Pacific Games, and the Pan American Games, & representing her country in the Oceania, and Micronesian Games.

At Youth Olympics, Akiwo, who is the Palau national record holder in the 100 Meter Backstroke, was scheduled to swim in the Women's 50 Meter Freestyle as well as the Women's 50 Meter backstroke.

Akiwo says she is excited about the opportunity and to represent her country and see the effort she has put into her sport pay off on an Olympic stage.  "You have to fall in love with the process of becoming great," she said.  "I have worked hard to get where I am and will continue to work hard to achieve my ultimate goal of going to the Olympics. I see the Youth Olympics as a stepping stone to this dream."

He wasn't happy with his times at the Buenos Aires Youth Olympic Games, he said it will push him to train harder to get better. Keane, 16, competed in men's 100-meter freestyle on Oct. 11 and came in with a time of 55.59 seconds. He said he wanted to finish in 54 seconds. "It didn't happen. I just have to train as hard as I can to get that time," he said.

Keane also competed in men's 200-meter freestyle on Oct. 8, with a time of 2:00.77.He said he wanted to break the two-minute mark. "I wasn't that happy, but I just have to move forward," he said. 

Keane is done with competition and said he will take his time to rest and think about how he can make himself better again. He said he's happy to have represented Palau at the Games, wearing a swim cap with the Palau flag. "It’s an awesome feeling. I love coming out to these competitions and representing our country and making them proud," Keane said. And he has a positive message for everyone back home. "You can do all things if you just do your best, be strong, be positive and you can do it," he said.
