Noga-Nir Kistler, the Whitehall High graduate and Salisbury Township native who will be representing the U.S.A. in the 2012 London Paralympic Games in London, will be featured on this morning's "Eye Opener" show on WPHL-17. The show runs from 6-8 a.m. No idea when Noga's segment will be shown.
Nir-Kistler, 33, is a member of the U.S. women's swim team.
WPHL-17 is a Tribune-owned station (Tribune also owns The Morning Call) and it can be seen on dial position-4 on Service Electric Cable and on dial-position 2 on RCN Cable.
The Paralympic Games will be held Wednesday through Sunday, Sept. 9 in the same venues that the Summer Olympics were just held.
The swimming competition begins Thursday.
With a total of 600 athletes competing for 148 medals, wwimming will be the second biggest event.
Nir-Kistler, who participated in the 2008 Beijing Paralympics in table tennis, is entered in six events --
Will she be shown competing LIVE?
ReplyDeleteTable Tennis in Beijing 2008?
ReplyDeleteSwimming in London 2012?
Unbelievable!
Maybe Track & Field in Brazil 2016?
Or,
maybe BOTH Table Tennis AND Swimming?

Saw this amazing girl playing table tennis @ the Allentown Y against some really good guys - she had them going bonkers & none of those really good guys were 'handicapped'. They were all sweating & running around w/her in her wheelchair as she was in total control.
ReplyDeleteFunniest part was when she (being in her wheelchair) & some older gentleman played doubles against those really good guys as Noga & friend dominated.
Plus, she's a real cutie.
Also, that evening, I received an education as they taught me the difference between ping pong & table tennis.
