What would winning an Olympic Medal mean to you?
Amanda Clark: Everything! The journey has been amazing so far, I get goose bumps when I think of achieving my highest goal.
Sarah Lihan: Not only would it be the realization of years of dreaming, it would be the most incredible sensation of fulfillment–truly a life’s project complete.

What was your most memorable day of sailing in 2011 and why?
Amanda Clark:  I have a couple, #1 The last day of Perth Worlds in Australia, December 17, 2011.  The feeling of performing under incredible pressure to pass the boats we needed to to win the Olympic trials. #2 Winning the day at our 470 European championship in Helsinki Finland July 11, 2011. We finished with a 2-2. Since then we have never looked back.

Amanda Clark & Sarah Lihan-Meet the Team

For most Olympic Team members, the dream of standing on a podium watching the American flag raise to the highest point begins in childhood. For Clark, who became the youngest member of the national team at the age of 15 in 1994, that dream was fueled by a passion for competition. Clark is a 2008 Olympian, while this will be the first Games for Lihan.

The pair had an impressive performance at Sail For Gold, with a silver medal in the Women’s 470.
