Olympic gymnast’s little bro is Olin student

His sister, Aly Raisman, has been in the spotlight with the US Gymnastics team at the Rio Olympics, but Brett, BSBA’18, has been attracting some attention, too. Here’s an excerpt from one of many online reports about Aly and her family:

“A native of Needham, Massachusetts, Brett is currently a junior at Olin Business School at Washington University in St. Louis, according to his LinkedIn profile. Brett majors in entrepreneurship and marketing, and minors in sports business. He also plays hockey, and he’s a member of the Beta-Sigma chapter of Kappa Sigma Fraternity, and represents them on the Standards Board of the school’s Interfraternity Council. And yet with all that going on, he still finds the time to jet set around the world to cheer for his big sister.”

“And fans are all about it, too. Brett just joined Instagram on Monday, and within a day, he racked up more than 8,000 followers and as many likes on his single post: a snapshot of a TV screen showing his mother, with his cheek visible in the corner of the screen. “I’ll try not to let the fame go to my head,” he captioned the post. He may be kidding, but his overnight fandom is no joke. Move over, Jordan Rodgers, there’s a new brother of a famous athlete in town.”
