It's crazy how much things have changed in the last 20 years or so. US colleges are now a training ground for Olympic teams from other countries. And no, I'm not being an old curmudgeon here and I'm all for it. But it's still crazy. 18 T&F athletes, 3 of 18 representing the USA.

It's definitely interesting to think about the state and donor resources that go into making our little campus in College Station, TX a training ground for Olympic athletes around the world.
