She's been listed under the Non-USA team members. There are several GLO members who are competing on the teams of other nations.

And a fun fact I did not know until 10 minutes ago - Katie Ledecky's mom is a Pi Phi from the University of New Mexico. (You may remember that Michael Phelp's mom is a Phi Mu)

I love that there are Greek women in the Olympics! I know that many Division I schools "dis-encourage" their women athletes from joining sororities. I am sure that this is not a written policy but passed down by word of mouth with many programs.

Lucy Davis, USA Equestrian, is a Stanford Pi Beta Phi

Katie Ledecky & Simone Manuel are both starting Stanford this fall. Wonder if the Stanford athletes at the Olympics that are Greek are already recruiting :rolleyes:

Although all of the Stanford sororities have athletes, Kappa has by far the most athletes.

I wish she was a Chi Omega, but there is no record of her being a member.
