Continuing a proud Olympic tradition, 34 current, former, and future University of Georgia student-athletes will compete in the 2024 Summer Olympic Games, beginning next Friday in Paris, France.

The delegation of 34 athletes will be joined by eight individuals participating in coaching, operations, media relations, and broadcasting capacities. The entire contingent will participate in 10 different sports and represent 20 different nations, including eight on Team USA.

With 10 medals across four Olympics, Allison Schmitt is the most decorated Bulldog in Olympics history.
