Is Simone doing the 200 to work her 100? I think either way, she has what it takes to make top 6 at trials.

I like Dressel’s last 15m but I was hoping for a 50.8 or 9 in that fly. Rose looked great as well.

Time for Rowdy to pass the torch! When you start confusing lanes and names and do it in every event, it’s time!

While I agree it’s time to pass the torch, to be fair they have the lanes basically backwards from how most pools set their lanes for races…normally the top of the pool (right to left) is lane 1 and bottom is lane 8….this pool for some reason has it backwards…so I’ll give Rowdy a pass on that…but yeah, I’m really hoping that USA Swimming and NBC begins to look outside of Rowdy for commentary.
