82, you can likely strike "alternate" from next to Campbell and Macario--FIFA and the IOC have confirmed that for this year only, the rosters will now be 22 rather than 18. The details haven't been finalized yet, but for now, it looks like the 4 alternates for each team are now considered part of the full squad, though only 18 are available for any given match. That said, I also saw some confusing language from FIFA that suggested they were simply making alternates available for gameday selection but not making them part of the full roster, in which case a player might not be considered an Olympian (or get a medal with the team) unless they actually get on the field. I've also seen language in reports describing the change as including the four alternates in the full roster (thus making them Olympians), but I haven't seen that language directly from the IOC or FIFA in a press release, so that's why I'm still hedging with "likely" above.
This is useful, and with such a compressed schedule, I would now fully expect to see Macario on the field in Tokyo, most likely in that second group game against New Zealand.

Stanford as a "country" would rank #19 in all time Summer Olympic medals with 270 (between Poland with 284 and South Korea with 267)
It doesn't detract from Stanford's great Olympic history, but it's not accurate to rank Stanford as such. Those 270 medals count individual medals in team events. If the US wins a women's water polo medal with five Stanford players on the team then it counts as one medal for the country but Stanford counts it as five medals in its tally. So team sports and relays distort the medal totals and inflate Stanford's ranking.

DC that would be true for any country. It’s apples and apples

The statement was that Stanford has won more medals than South Korea. But if South Korea wins a medal in water polo it's counted as one medal, whereas if a there were four Stanford players on the team it would count as four medals in Stanford's accounting; it's apples and oranges.
If the US wins the gold medal in women's soccer this year it would count as one gold medal for the US, but Stanford would count it as five gold medals for the school. You couldn't honestly say that "if Stanford were a country it would rank ahead of the US in women's soccer goal medals" by a 5-1 margin because you are counting two different things. Apples-to-apples would mean that the US would claim 22 gold medals in women's soccer.

you two can discuss this topic, I'll delete my post on "Stanford as a country" as it was just a "fun fact", I won't post any more of them as I not willing to go through the history of Olympic medals to adjust counts.
