The student athletes from my alma mater, the University of
Southern California, won 25 medals at London Olympics, including 12 gold. If we
were a country, we would have finished sixth in the world, after the US, China,
Great Britain, Russia and Korea.
Fight On!
A comment on Trojan victories were posted on another entry (‘Oil Up…’). I am reproducing the original comment and my reply here. Have fun!

Not to take away from your Trojans But My Michigan Wolverines have done better, Michael Phelps (from U of M) alone in past two Olympics has almost as much as all the others!

I love Phelps. But SC's current student athletes, won 25 medals this Olympics, including 12 gold. If I wanted to count medals by USC alumni, it would have been probably in three digits! BTW, the medals won by USC in London were the highest ever by any university at Olympics games. Michigan is of course OK!
and yet you would allow my my joking boast
