There is something about Colorado teenagers and the Olympics. The star of the 2012 Olympics was high schooler Missy Franklin, who won four gold medals and a bronze in London's pool. The star of this year's Olympics is 18-year-old Mikaela Shiffrin, who won the slalom, the most technical ski race, "slam dancing" down the mountain through tight gates. Congratulations, Mikaela!
