Later this year, Arujau hopes to represent his country in the 2024 Olympics. Hear how he plans to get there, and listen to the lessons he's learned from a life on the mat.

    Toughness and grit

    Michael Zheng's had a racquet in his hand since he was six years old. To hone his craft, he hasn't just traveled the country, he's gone around the world, playing in junior grand slam tennis events that put him on the same court as proven pros. Now, in his second season at Columbia, Zheng has set the bar high. As a freshman, he became the first student-athlete in Ivy League men's tennis history to win conference Player of the Year, Rookie of the Year, First-Team Singles, and First-Team Doubles honors. What do he and the Lions have in store for the new spring season? The New Jersey native dishes on his development, American tennis, and competition in the Ivy League. Hosted by Brian Seltzer.

    Calm and collected

    Lauren Scruggs just turned 21, but she's already established herself as one of the top fencers on the planet. Ranked 13th in the world in foil, the Harvard junior has plenty of heady accomplishments on her resume - the youngest American to ever win a junior world title, NCAA champion, one of two African-Americans to become an international champ. Yet somehow, despite so much success at such a young age, Scruggs seems to keep everything in check. The pressure doesn't phase her. What's her secret? How did she, and her brother, break through in a sport that historically has lacked representation among people of color? Where do the 2024 Olympics factor into her plans? Listen to find out what makes Scruggs tick. Hosted by Brian Seltzer.

For the second straight year, the Ivy League has sent a delegation of its top senior and graduate players to the other side of the world to take part in an exhibition against some of the best talent from Japan's pro league. Brown head coach James Perry is coaching this year’s Ivy contingent, and shares what the once-in-a-lifetime journey has been like so far. Hosted by Brian Seltzer.
