Names and Faces: Janet Evans, Don Drysdale
The four-time Olympic gold-medalist swimmer, diver Greg Louganis and hurdler Edwin Moses are landing on the cover of a Wheaties box decades after their careers ended.
General Mills says the three will be honored on cereal boxes as part of the Wheaties Legends series.
Evans, a Stanford alum, won gold in distance swimming at the 1988 and 1992 Olympics; Louganis swept the 3-meter and 10-platform diving events in the 1984 and ’88 Games; and Moses won gold in the 400-meter hurdles at the ’76 and ’84 Games.
