Hopefully this is the list of all MSU athletes and a couple of coaches competing as athletes that I could gather from different websites, esp the MSU Athletics site. If you know of anyone whom I missed please let me know and I will add them. Interesting that swimming, a sport cancelled recently has the most medalists.
