LOCAL BRIEF Frank Chapot, Olympic show jumper and coach, dies at 84

BOUND BROOK, N.J. – Frank Chapot, a champion show jumper who competed in six Olympics before coaching the U.S. equestrian team to gold, has died. He was 84. Chapot died Monday morning at a nursing home in Bound Brook, his daughter Wendy Chapot Nunn told The Associated Press. Chapot was the youngest rider in the 1956 Olympic Games, his first, and would be a fixture on the equestrian team for the next 20 years, winning silver medals in 1960 and 1972. In the 1964 Games, he and Mary Mairs Chapot became the first husband-wife combination to ride for the U.S. equestrian team. He took over as coach of the U.S. squad in 1980. The Americans boycotted that year’s games, but returned to competition in Los Angeles in 1984, where Chapot led the equestrian team to its first Olympic gold. His team won silver in 1988, and he continued to serve as coach until retiring after the 2004 Games in Athens. – Wire report
