One Minnesota School Just Had 10 Alumni Win Olympic Medals
A Minnesota school just had 10 alumni claim medals at the Winter Olympics, something that has never happened before at the school. The feat was accomplished all in one Olympic sport, too: ice hockey.
Minnesota Prep School Has 10 Alumni Win Medals At 2026 Winter Olympics
A Minnesota prep school, located in South-Central Minnesota, just had 10 alumni win Olympic medals of various colors. The prep school, which has been known as a hockey school for years, might not be able to claim as many medalists in one Olympic sport again.
Shattuck St. Mary's in Faribault posted the news on social media Monday.
The post highlights the players, what country they were playing for, and the year they graduated from the school (if they graduated from Shattuck St. Mary's). I've got to admit, the list is a who's who of professional players who have passed through the land of 10,000 rinks.
Former Shattuck St. Mary's Players To Win A Medal In The Winter Olympics
Monja Wagner (Class of 2022) - Switzerland - Bronze
Erik Haula - Finland - Bronze
Blayre Turnbull (Class of 2011) - Canada - Silver
Sidney Crosby - Canada - Silver
Macklin Celebrini - Canada - Silver
Nathan MacKinnon - Canada - Silver
Hannah Bilka (Class of 2019) - USA - Gold
Aerin Frankel (Class of 2017) - USA - Gold
Clayton Keller - USA - Gold
Jackson LaCombe (Class of 2019) - USA - Gold
It's Going To Be Tough To Get 10 Again
I would think that seeing 10 medalists from the same school in the same sport might not happen again for some time, but the way that Shattuck St. Mary's attracts some of the best hockey talent in the world, anything is possible.
