In the MUSTANG DAILY, Lauren Rabaino writes "John Donovan is no longer the jealous child who once sat on the bench while his sister dominated the basketball court. Now, the Templeton resident and brother of Anne Donovan - Team USA's women's basketball head coach - has a deeper understanding of what it means to have a champion in the family. "It was hard at that point in my life because I didn't recognize or appreciate what she was going through," John says. "But as we got older, when she and I would go down to the playground, I learned a lot from her because she had the best coaching in the world." John will witness Anne's coaching firsthand this week at the Olympics. Anne, a member of the Basketball of Hall Fame, is a three-time Olympian who earned gold medals in women's basketball during the 1980s.”
