Prior to the Parapan American Games in Guadalajara, Mexico, the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) is counting down the top 10 storylines to watch. Today, at No. 3, we feature Andre Brasil, who will lead the Brazilian Swimming delegation.
Andre Brasil is the heart of Brazil's swim team.
His surname pretty much speaks for itself.
If that is not enough, Brasil won four golds and a silver at the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games and five golds and two silvers at the 2010 World Championships in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. He is the world-record holder in eight different events.
