Olympic gold medal winner Shawn Johnson was named the 2008 Sullivan Award which is given to the country's top amateur athlete. In accepting the award, Johnson stated:
"Being up there with all the other athletes and just hearing all the titles they kept listing off, I was like, 'There's no way.' Then when they called my name," Johnson added, "it's the biggest honor there is. To be the first female gymnast, it's just amazing. I'm so excited."
