Even more than winning national championships (where Golden Bears are top 5 in the country), Cal Athletics has been arguably the best in recent years (particularly the last 3 Summer Olympic games) in producing/training Olympians. While I am certain that several Cal athletics will likely become Olympians in the future (Andrew Seliskar in men’s swimming, Amy Bilquist and Katie McLoughlin in women’s swimming, and Emma Wright in women’s water polo are the most likely candidates), plenty of current Cal athletes that you can see this winter are already “Calympians”. These athletes are some of the best in their discipline in the entire world; Cal fans can see them in action while sporting the Blue and Gold proudly for free (or for just a small fees) as well as get autographs, especially if one brings a child.
