  Can you venture a guess to the total number of athletes from New Jersey who participated in the Olympic Games since 1990?

                            How about those who won medals? 

                            Which country won the most medals during  2004?      2002?        2000?        .........

                            How many individual medals were won?   What about team medals?

                            How does that compare to the total number of athletes and countries?

                            Where did they live?  Was an US Olympian from your hometown?

                           Think there is no math in the Olympics...... just blood, sweat, and tears? 

 Think Again!

Take a journey with us.  Visit the athlete's hometown; sport; event; year.

What was it like back then?

Are we sure math was REALLY involved?
