Nathan Adrian named Ambassador for 2019 Lima Pan American Games

Eight-time Olympic medalist Adrian will be joining nine other ambassadors of Team Panam Sports, which include such world-class athletes as Mariana Pajon, Paula Pareto, Luisito Pie, Yulimar Rojas, Briana Williams, Arthur Zanetti, Rommel Pacheco, Mijain Lopez, as well as Alexandra Grande.

Particularly impressive about these 10 athlete ambassadors is that they were selected since they represent the core values of the Pan American Games, as well as the spirit of competition in the Olympic movement in the Americas region. The 2019 Lima Pan American Games will begin on July 26, and it is regarded as “Americas’ biggest stage.” It will consist of 41 countries competing and 17 days of action.
