More than twenty Texans are competing in this year's Olympic games held in Beijing, China.

They are participating in an array of sports and come from a variety of Texas schools and towns.

We've created a Google Map that lays out where the athletes are from and their respective events they will be participating in. Check it out here.

We plan to be following the athletes throughout the Olympics and recommend reading this blog which is run by the Lopez family of Sugar Land, Texas. Three of their children, Diana, Steven, and Mark are competing in Taekwondo for the U.S.
