May-Treanor – The Winningest Female Player in Volleyball
Having won more tournaments than any other professional female volleyball player, Misty May-Treanor is no stranger to winning. A gifted multi-sport athlete, she entered her first volleyball tournament at the young age of eight. In high school, she helped her team to win two state volleyball championships and was named the nation’s best girls volleyball player by USA Today. She then went on to lead her college team to an undefeated season. Her latest performance in London not only won her team top podium honors, but earned her a spot in history as the first in her sport to win three gold medals. May-Treanor is an American champion whose competitive spirit has driven her to great success while inspiring others along the way.
“My message to athletes everywhere is to never give up, ever,” said May-Treanor. “If someone says you can’t do it, try harder.”
Limited-edition Wheaties packages are in stores now and continues the ongoing tradition of the Breakfast of Champions® honoring great American athletes. Since its creation in 1924, a Wheaties breakfast with 100% Whole Grain flakes has provided the long lasting energy that athletes look to in order to fuel up in the morning.  For more information on our Wheaties Champions, visit www.wheaties.com.
