Fun Facts


 Myler's fifth place finish at the 1988 Calgary games is the best showing by a U.S. woman sledder in Olympic competition.
 She began participating in luge in 1980, and, five years later at 16, she became the youngest sledder to win a national title.
 A graduate cum laude from Dartmouth College (1995), Myler has won a total of six U.S. National Championships during her career. Cammy is short for her first name, Cameron.
