1932 - Los Angeles
Eddie Tolan's victories in the 100 and 200 meters brought Michigan a unique distinction. The 5-foot, 7-inch sprinter from Detroit set two Olympic records, joining Archie Hahn and Ralph Craig as double gold medal winners in the sprints. No other university can match that record in the Olympic competition.
