The USA currently has five medals, and two of them were brought in by Washington-associated athletes.

Washington state athletes with medals

Western Washington University alum Breezy Johnson took home Team USA’s first medal of the 2026 Milan Cortina Olympic Games, earning a gold medal in Women’s Downhill on Sunday morning with a time of 1 minute and 36.10 seconds.

On Tuesday, Johnson lost the podium to Jackie Wiles and her teammate Paula Moltzan, who together earned their bronze medals in Alpine Skiing Women’s Team Combined. While she originally hails from Portland, Oregon, U.S. Ski and Snowboard calls Wiles “a product entirely of the Pacific Northwest Ski Association.”
