I am surprised to see a big lack of Minnesota talent on the olympic roster with all the players we have playing D1 on a national level. Really no new blood at all. Congrats to team Wisconsin and good luck!!

7 of 21 (one third of the team) from the University of Wisconsin. Should we root for Canada?

Does anyone know what happened to these former Olympians?

Sarah Parsons
Lyndsey Wall
Krissy Wendell (assuming she is starting a family)

I know Parsons is at Dartmouth, but didn't see her mentioned during Olympic try outs. She was the media darling in '06, being the youngest.

Haven't seen or heard of Wall since she left the Gophers.
