Werribee basketballer Rachel Jarry will have a special souvenir of London when she returns to uni.

She’s been part of our women’s basketball team, the Boomers, who took third place in the Olympic women's basketball comp.

The 21-year-old joins Geelong rower and silver medallist Josh Dunkley-Smith as the only two of the sixteen local athletes who went to London to bring home a medal.
