Going into the 2020 Olympic Games, if USC were a country entering its athletes in the Olympic Games, its 305 all-time Summer Olympics medals would place it 13th among all participating countries. And in 11 different Olympics, USC’s medal count would have positioned it among the top 12 competing nations.
and then there are the winter Olympic medals, USC has none (at least that's my take after quickly scanning their list which show medal winners as well as participants in winter and summer games) and we have at least one (Debi Thomas) and five more if you count Eric Heiden (his medals were before his time in the med school but we count medal from athletes who won them in high school and matriculated at Stanford but had no medals while at Stanford) and maybe some more....
