COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — U.S. Olympic Committee sponsor Kellogg Company will feature Kerri Walsh, Summer Sanders and five others as part of its campaign leading into the 2012 London Olympics.
Walsh teamed with Misty May-Treanor to win gold in the last two Olympics in beach volleyball. Sanders won four medals for swimming at the Barcelona Games. They’re highlighted in a campaign that will focus on the importance of eating a good breakfast as part of a sound strategy for success.
Other athletes on “Team Kellogg” are Juan Agudelo (soccer), Michael Landers (table tennis), Rebecca Soni (swimming), Casey Tibbs (paralympics) and Dwight Phillips (athletics).
In April, Kellogg’s signed a sponsorship deal with the USOC through 2016, rekindling a relationship with the Olympics that began in 1976. Kellogg ended its relationship after the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
