Santo Domingo.\u2013<\/strong> The pride of representing the Dominican Republic and the joy of sharing a sporting achievement with family marked the participation of the Pigosi siblings in the Central American and Caribbean Games, where they won a total of 12 medals in water skiing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The athletes, originally from Boca Chica, highlighted the experience lived during the competition and especially valued the support of the Dominican public for a discipline that is still seeking to gain greater recognition in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThe experience is very cool. We have previously been to Pan American Games, but the organization here in the country was truly the best I have ever seen. We had a great time and are very happy to be able to bring this medal along with my brothers to the Dominican Republic,\u201d expressed one of the brothers.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

For the Pigosis, competing at home had a special meaning, not only because of the results obtained, but because of the opportunity to boost the growth of water skiing among Dominicans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the family members expressed her satisfaction at having been able to share the achievement with her siblings and contribute to more people learning about this discipline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI am very happy to be able to grow the sport together with my brothers and to be able to make it known, so that more people can play sports,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Public support<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The brothers acknowledged that the support received during the competitions was particularly exciting because water skiing is not a widely known discipline in the Dominican Republic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cIt felt super, super good. Honestly, I feel very happy to be able to grow the sport together with my siblings and to be able to raise awareness so that more people can play sports,\u201d they noted.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The Pigosi family achieved a medal haul that included golds, silvers, and bronzes<\/strong>. Andrea Pigosi won one gold and two silvers, while another of the siblings secured a gold<\/a> medal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In total, the three siblings won 12 medals<\/strong> during their participation in the Central American and Caribbean Games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Boca Chica to the podium<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Pigosi’s results have generated pride in their community of Boca Chica, from where they departed to represent the country in a discipline they now seek to promote among new generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The athletes also highlighted the support of their parents and the satisfaction of having competed alongside their siblings in a sporting event held on Dominican territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After enjoying the post-Games celebrations, the Pigosis were preparing to participate in the athletes’ parade that will travel through the streets of Greater Santo Domingo this Sunday, where they will display the medals won and share the results of their participation with the Dominican public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the siblings, beyond the number of medals, the greatest triumph has been representing the country and contributing to water skiing gaining new followers in the Dominican Republic.<\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
