This US university has almost as many Olympic medals as Brazil

If the University of Georgia were a sovereign nation, it would be just behind Brazil in the Olympic medal count! 48 of the athletes competing at the Rio Olympics this year are UGA students and they have won 10 medals so far With only a few more days of the games left, if the University of Georgia alumni were competing as a group they would be better ranked than most of the 205 countries in the Olympics The sprinter Shaunae Miller, volleyball player Alexandra Oquendo and swimmers Chase Kalisz, Allison Schmitt, Amanda Weir and Gunnar Bentz are some of the UGA winner athletes
