The U.S. Olympic team is set for Torino!
Wednesday, February 1, 2006

The U.S. Olympic Committee submitted its final roster of athletes for
the Olympic Games, which get underway NINE DAYS from now with the
Opening Ceremonies on Feb. 10!
The USA will send a total of 211 athletes to Torino -- 89 women and 122 men. They represent 33 states. Forty percent are returning Olympians, having competed in Salt Lake in 2002 and/or in Nagano in 1998.
Then there's speed skater Chris Witty, a 5-time Olympian who's returning to her 4th Winter Games (she competed in the 2000 Summer Games in Sydney as well).
America's Olympians range in age from 54 years old (Scott Baird, curling) to 16 years old (Kimmie Meissner, figure skating; Elena Hight, snowboarding; and Anders Johnson, ski jumping).
Best of luck to Team USA!

Until the USOC actually publishes these lists, check out this web site for all 211 athletes who made the U.S. Olympic 2006 Team. This list has been continually updated since April when the Curlling teams first qualified. http://www.olympicproportions

Also, for commentary on those prominent athletes who unfortunately did not make this team, check out this blog for some inside info. http://olympics.blogster.com/?u=olympics
