Sports Illustrated's 'Golden' Prediction for Beisel

Elizabeth Beisel won't just medal in the London Olympics, according to Sports Illustrated: she'll walk away with a gold medal.

The sports publication released its predictions for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London last week. According to the magazine, – her best event.

In addition to the 400-meter, Beisel will compete in the 200-meter backstroke. Sports Illustrated's predictions for her in this event aren't as lofty, however.

Locals have been fundraising for the past week to send Beisel's parents and brother to watch her compete on the world stage next month with a t-shirt sale. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the North Kingstown Food Pantry. .
