The U.S. Judo coach says the team has a good shot at winning multiple medals. Two local athletes are on that team.

That includes Nick Delpopolo. Nick has a bye in the first round and could face the number eight seed in the draw if he makes it past his first opponent.

Nick lives in Amsterdam. Also on the team, Kyle Vashkulat of Clifton Park and Travis Stevens.

Stevens used to live in Glenville and trained with local judo coach, Jason Morris.
