One of those sports is softball. 
One local softball athlete, Hayfield's Caitlyn Hendrickson, is ready for it. 
"I have been following certain players.  I mean, Gopher alumni, other colleges that I've watched on the Women's College World Series.  Like alumni that are actually playing in the Olympics.  And they've talked about how much it means to them in their posts.  And how it's huge for women in sports," says Caitlyn. 
Softball became a medal event in 1996 but was removed in 2008.
