Torri Huske, 21 of Arlington, won the Olympic gold medal in the 100-meter butterfly Sunday night.
“Still feel like I’m in shock right now,” Torri Huske posted on Instagram. “These past two days have been a dream. Thank you so much to my amazing friends, family, coaches and country.” Huske also was part of the silver medal winning women’s 4 x 100m Freestyle Relay.
In 2021 at Tokyo Olympics, Huske also won silver as part of the women’s Freestyle Relay. She came in fourth in the 100-meter butterfly, missing the podium by just one one-hundredth of a second.
“I'm not gonna lie, that was devastating,” Huske said to a TeamUSA writer when asked about the loss in 2021. “But I think that it really fueled me, and I think that it did make me better.”
Huske graduated from Yorktown High School and now swims at Stanford University.
