Marina Kosheveya

Aquatic Sports

Marina Kosheveya, whose surname the opening line of her English Wikipedia article spells Koshevaya, was born on 1 April 1960 in Moscow and is a former Soviet swimmer and Olympic champion. She competed at the 1976 Olympic Games in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, where she won the gold medal in the 200-metre breaststroke and a bronze medal in the 100-metre breaststroke. The article gives no further biographical detail, so this entry records her birth, her Soviet representation and the two breaststroke medals from Montreal.
