The 10 US Colleges With The Most Sochi Olympian Athletes

Did you know that there’s a college in the United States which is responsible for 10% of the athletes in the Winter Olympics? Unless you’ve already read this report from Business Insider, my guess is that you didn’t. Even crazier is that it’s a college you’ve probably never even heard of (unless you’re a fantastic skier): Westminster College in Salt Lake City, UT. Westminster is responsible for 23 out of the 230 United States Olympic athletes competing at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics.

The school is able to have such a huge contingent because of its location–right in Salt Lake City where the 2002 Winter Olympics were held–and because of a partnership they have with the US Ski and Snowboard Association. But there are a few other institutions (other than Westminster College) who have great representation in Sochi. See which schools they are below:

* FYI, we are not including DeVry University which has 15 athletes competing in the 2014 Winter Olympics.
