The E-star line-up is pretty solid
I've been looking everywhere but as of this point in time, haven't seen any official roster released for the E-star contingent, just that for Team USA...care to share? ;)
Roster thoughts:
1. The women's team looks fully loaded. Not really much to say there. Maybe missing Kukors.
2. No Adrian or Phelps on the men's side? Uh-oh.
3. It will be good to see Grevers and Hansen back competing internationally for the US. I really want to see Hansen break a minute in the hundred. Gangloff's relay split in Shanghai was weak (1:01, I think?), we need help badly. Grevers sub 53 would be nice as well, if possible.
4. I'll be interested to see where Conor Dwyer and Jimmy Feigen are at this time of the year. Dwyer in particular has not been showing what he's capable of internationally yet.
General thoughts:
1. This meet is going to be much more competitive than last year's meet. The E-star line-up is pretty solid.
2. The last DitP was extremely fast for a December meet (eight SCM world records, last chance in the suits). I think this year will be slower for a variety of reasons.
