 | | Photo by John Pedersen: Cassie Hanwell passed the Olympic flame along to the next runner after completing the first leg of the torch’s tour through Columbus, Mont. Hanwell was nominated by her sister and randomly selected from a pool of more than 200,000 essays. |
 | | Hanwell, ‘01, stood at the ready in her appointed spot, next to the ‘ENTERING COLUMBUS’ sign, silver torch in hand, ready to help the Olympic flame along its 65-day journey toward Salt Lake City, Utah: the site for the 2002 Winter Olympics. |
 | | Dressed from head to toe in the sparkling white uniform of the Olympic torch-bearers, Hanwell waited for the flame to be delivered to her by the Chevrolet Avalanche Torch Transport (CATT), a specially modified Chevy Avalanche that carries the angular copper cauldron of Olympic fire from town to town. |
