Day 2 Finals Preview Presented by Engine
Garrett, Mel, and Braden recap the prelims and preview the 2nd finals session at the 2012 US Olympic Trials.
what are the chances of kevin cordes being selected to the olympic team for the 200 im relay due to the best 50m time in the 100 breast finals?
there isnt one
Hope she is feeling better….
did no one else notice Katie Hoff in 20th with a 4:13? :/
Looked like she quit halfway through the race….almost looked like she was swimming backwards when everyone started past her.Would that be her aerobic base missing or her head getting in the way…
Apparently she is sick: http://swimsw.am/23w
it was a disgrace the way all the attention and talk was on Kaiie Hoff instead of on the girl who led the entire time and then won the 400 free, heat 10 prelim. Even the camera at the end was on Katie Hoff in her agony of defeat instead of on the winner. It was embarrassing for both of them! Poor journalism!!!!
Seriously..you guys are doing great. So much better than listening to Scot Hamilton…oops, meant Rowdy Gaines for commentary.
Thanks Don! Seeing all of the comments and knowing that people are getting into it keeps us going!
Couglin did look smooth–still not certain if the young one’s won’t take her out in the 100bk. Soni looked really stiff ???
I love how after one year, Missy Franklin is commented about as part of the old guard and swimmer’s a mere 1 year younger than her are potential breakout swimmers. Insane based on her results this past year and just turning 17. It’s great to see a lot of the concern for USA Swimming is being put on hold as these 14-16 year olds are making semis and final heats. All that worry, for a whole lot of nothing in my mind…
Franklin made her first senior international team way back in 2009 (Duel in the Pool) so counts as a grizzled veteran at this point.
You guys are doing a great job with the coverage. Can’t tell you how excited I am to be able to keep up with everything while at work. Kudos.
Great Job!Can’t wait for Finals to start.
