Seven Buckeyes taking place in the 2022 Winter Olympic games

Seven current and former Ohio State athletes are taking part in the winter Olympics.

It seems like we just got through with the Olympics, and that’s because well — we did, albeit the summer variety and not its winter cousin. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 summer games in Tokyo were postponed to 2021 where there was a slew of former Ohio State athletes taking part.

If you live in the Midwest, all you have to do is look outside to be reminded that we are in the throws of winter, and thus, it’s now time for the 2022 winter games just six months later in Beijing.

And yeah, just like the summer games, there are some former and current Buckeye athletes taking part in all the snowy fun in China. Most are from Ohio State women’s hockey, but all told, seven total athletes with a scarlet and gray in their background are a part of the 2022 winter Olympic games.

Let’s take a look at all of them.
