    Re: Indiana University Hoosiers

    The 1940 guy would be Campbell Kane.

    The two individual silvers are Milt Campbell ('52 dec--but before he got to IU--are they counting that as one of theirs?) Willie May '60 110H (barely edged by Calhoun).

    Since you don't go back before 1932, I'm guessing that the two guys you're missing come from this trio: Mark Deady, Terry Brahm, Charlie Marsala. Each made a team, but I can't remember which made WC or OG. I think Brahm made Oly Team in '92 in New Orleans. I vaguely remember Deady winning a race in Indy to get on a team, but then he didn't get the Q to compete internationally. Same might have happened to Marsala.

    Sam Bell was good at coaching kickers who were great tactically, but they didn't always get the Q.

    dj, you are so good you SCARE me. Can't believe you got Fuqua. I did not consider coaches, and I do not know about Deckard and Samse, but all the others are completely correct.

    All we have left ( at least from my list ) are 2 more, plus the 1940 guy with the "first name the same as a last name".

    I missed Volz, sorry, he is not one of my 13 or 14. All mine are from 1932 onwards. And if I missed any others besides Volz, I apologize in advance !

    IU claims 23 different athletes (plus two coaches) that have gone 28 times to the Olympics since 1904. Notwithstanding the 1940 or 1980 "teams," IU has been represented in every Games except Toyko and Munich since '32.

    started a topic Indiana University Hoosiers

    Indiana University Hoosiers

    13 Indiana University Hoosiers have been good enough to make Olympic teams; 6 of them even brought home 6 golds( 3 individual, 3 relay) and 2 individual silvers. The other 7 I.U. Olympians include some pretty famous names. Can you name any or all of these 13 Indiana University Olympic Teasm members ?

    And as a bonus, name another that was supposed to be on the 1940 team; his first name is the same as the last name of one of the above 13.
