Jeannie Paparone
8th Place - Middleweight You've heard the expression "a day late and a dollar short". Well it has nothing to do with Jeannie 'cause it's a year later and she's not short a thing, take my word for it! A certain reporter <ahem> however, had somehow overlooked Jeannie in the continuing updates and didn't recognize her when introducing himself at weigh-ins of the just completed 2002 USA's. Could have also been the fact that had there been an award for most improved competitor, Jeannie would have won hands down! 2002 will have to wait for now, I know WPW scheduled a photoshoot - check them out for a future release. So anyway, making up for lost time, here's Jeannie in 2001. (click thumbnail to enlarge) |
