The 2018 Winter Olympics kick off Feb. 8 in Pyeongchang, South Korea, and over a dozen Olympians have ties to Vermont, with many more having trained or gone to school here.

In fact, Vermont is tied for sixth among states sending the most Olympic athletes in Team USA this year (Colorado takes first, in case you were curious!)

To help you keep track of local athletes as they compete in Pyeongchang, we've gathered their bios by team:

Alpine Skiing | Biathlon | Bobsleigh & Luge| Cross-Country Skiing| Freestyle Skiing | Ice Hockey | Snowboard

We'll be keeping track of the results every weekday morning on the Sports Report and on VPR's Facebookand Twitteraccounts.
