(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Robert Raymond Sohl was an American competition swimmer and Olympic medalist. Sohl represented the United States at the 1948 Summer Olympics in London, where he received a bronze medal for his third-place performance in the men's 200-meter breaststroke, finishing behind fellow Americans Joe Verdeur and Keith Carter, and completing an American sweep of the event. Verdeur, Carter and Sohl had finished in the same order at the 1948 U.S. Olympic Trials. Although his time was recorded by the timekeepers to be 0.2s slower than the fourth-place finisher, John Davies of Australia, the judges believed that Sohl had touched first and awarded him the bronze.
