Khatuna Lorig, an Olympic bronze medalist who trains at the Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista, haa a role in the new movie "The Hunger Games," but you'll never see her onscreen. She was the one who taught actress Jennifer Lawrence, who plays the lead role in the movie, how to use a bow and look like an archer. Over a series of 10 lessons, Lorig says Lawrence did well and from what she's seen in the trailers, the actress does a nice job. My story on Lorig for the U.S. Olympic website:
