01.09.2008 - OLYMPIC GOLD DAVID LEE: "I CAN'T WAIT TO ARRIVE IN MODENA!"
He will arrive in Modena next week and he will arrive with a golden medal around his neck and very enthusiastic to start the Gialloblù adventure. David Cameron Lee was one of the absolute stars of the Olympics in Beijing 2008: best central, by far, of the United States that conquered gold at the Olympics, David appeared to be the best blocker of the games (first in the list of best blockers with 33 blocks, second on the list was the Brazilian Gustavo with 29 blocks). As said before David will disembark in Modena within a couple of days, in the meantime we spoke with him while he was in California for a few days for a well earned break. Goodmorning and compliments David! Tell us about the Olympic adventure... "The games were incredible. We were in China for about a month: in the first meeting against Venezuela we played five sets and ran the risk of losing, while the games went on we played better and better, day after day. We finished the pool winning all matches: that's when we started to realise we could win the golden medal." What was the most difficult moment of the games and what the most distressing? "The match against Russia in the semifinals: that was both the most difficult and most distressing moment. The match finished with four consecutive points by me and especially the last one was one of my blocks. A very special block..." What did you expect before the Olympics? And who do you dedicate the victory to? "Before the Olympics started I wanted to win them! But of course I knew, and the whole team knew that, we would play against teams like Brazil, Russia, Italy, Poland and Bulgaria: we knew the games would be difficult, but we wanted to try... I would like to dedicate the victory to my family who has been with me in China for the whole period of the Olympic games." Also on a personal level you played fantastic games... "Let's say I played with a constant performance and above that I played some important games at important moments. I am very happy I played in a great team like that of the United states and against great champions." Can you tell us about the feelings of an Olympic experience: an experience that doesn't only regard sports... "There is something very special about playing at the Olympics, its a unique feeling. The Olympic village passes a positive energy on to to all athletes. You live close to people from all over the world with the same goals: that creates an incredible feeling for getting to know and interact with the people around you. Let's move on to your next adventure in Italy and Modena: what do you expect? "For now I tell you that I can't wait any longer, I am so much looking forward to arriving in Modena: a club with an incredible history, I'm proud I'm going to play for this club." Your teammate in the National team Lloy Ball, played in Modena (winning the national championship in 2002): what did Lloy tell you about Modena? "That I should go to Modena. That Modena is a fantastic city and that, amongst other things, it's a fascinating city both for the culture and the food. What do you think of Trenkwalder 2008/09? "Trenkwalder will be the best club I ever played for, there is an immense number of talented players. I know quite some of my new teammates because they're famous all over the world. Last year with Ankara (where another new purchase of Modena was in his team: the German Marc Siebeck, ed), my former club, we also played against Modena in the Challenge Cup. And about Andrea Giani: he was one of the strongest players ever, everybody knows him. I asked Ball to tell me about Giani and Lloy said Andrea is also a phenomenal person. It is an honour being trained by him, playing with great teammates and being part of the team of Modena." Finally, what would you like to say to your fans in Modena? "They told me Modena has the best fans in Italy: I can't wait to play at PalaPanini and I hope the fans will be by our side." Name: David Cameron Lee Born in Alpine (California) on the 8th of March 1982 Position: central. Height: 203 cm In the picture the new central of Trenkwalder Modena David Lee (second from the right), together with some friends at the Anaheim White House Restaurant (sponsor of the American National volleyball team) at Anaheim in California.

I feel a bit like I felt the day I got married: in the period beforehand, the preparations, you prepare yourself and feel really good. When the day finally arrives, when you put the suit on, however much you are prepared, things change. There are even more emotions now. I am really enthusiastic and passionate about the beginning of this adventure. Modena must go back to being of the top of the game," Giani said.
