MARQUETTE -- The Olympics are less than a month away, and the U.S. Olympic Education Center at NMU is looking to bulk up its roster for future games.

Monday, the USOEC announced four new additions to their weightlifting team.

Sarah Robles of California has been here since the end of June.  She'll be joined by Caleb Ward of Texas, Jessica Gallagher of Florida and Sage Burgener, also of California.

They're expected to arrive this month.

Their first weightlifting event will be in Colorado Springs this September.
