Tara Davis-Woodhall, an Olympic long jump champion, and Hunter Woodhall, a Paralympic sprinter, are married and a power couple who met at a high school track meet and have been together since 2017, getting married in 2022.
Tara won gold in the women’s long jump at the Paris 2024 Olympics, and Hunter won gold in the 400-meter T62 final at the Paralympics.
When Davis and Woodhall are not competing on the field, they post on social media to connect with fans.
The two share their experiences as a couple and professional athletes on their YouTube channel, giving their nearly 800,000 subscribers an intimate first look at training sessions, personal milestones and details of their relationship.
In a video posted in August 2024, they vlogged the days leading up to Davis’ first competition at the Paris games, “We’re at our Second Olympics. Together this time.,” emphasizing that while it’s their second Olympic stint, it’s the first they can cheer for each other on the stands without COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
A great interview, let’s see what is next for the Woodhalls.

Sports collector, now author, Lou Vigliotti, joins Rick This week.
Vigliotti is a retired financial executive with over 40 years in the financial services industry. For over 30 years he has been collecting various sports related items with an emphasis on autographed sports memorabilia.
From Lou:
Have you ever wondered why people are fascinated by sports icons and obtaining their autograph? Well, I did as well, until I realized it can become a hobby and a challenge. What started as sports card collecting eventually led to collecting autographed sports memorabilia. “Collective Dream” are the anecdotes of one man’s quest to obtain the autographs of some of the greatest sports figures in history. Creative outreach, camera mishaps, rule infractions are all part of the Dream. Along the way, you will learn highlights and statistics of some of these sport icons.
Lou grew up in the small town of Lewis Run, Pennsylvania. He is a graduate of Indiana University of Pennsylvania holding a B.S. degree in Business Administration. He has held various board of director positions and now is a consultant to various financial services companies. He lives in Florida and Maryland and enjoys spending time with his family, traveling and continues to be involved in sports memorabilia collecting.
