I have soooo much Jersey pride and I know you do too!  So when I found this list of New Jersey athletes and coaches heading to the Olympics by Carly Baldwin from The Patch, I had to highlight it!  The fact that that Bruce Springsteen's daughter, Jessica Springsteen, is going to Tokyo has us all wondering what Jersey athletes and towns are representing us in the Olympics.  Maybe an athlete from your town is representing us in the Olympics this year! So many talented Jersey peeps!  Scroll through to see the list...
