I’ve got the funny feeling, that Elendt’s not gonna care that much about the OT cut, since she is from Germany and races for the German federation…
Maybe if u have a great October meet u can spread the awards out for the whole season?
I’m confused. Dec 1 Awards for US Open swims from Nov 12-14? Weird.
Did Texas have a meet this week?
