2012 OLYMPIC TEAM TRIALS
Some observations from the IGP psych sheets:
Women's 400 looks like a good race.
Phelps and Peng go at each other in the 100 fly again.
Lochte is swimming the 100 fly.
The Women's 400 IM is a rematch of the NCAA final, plus Coventry.
There are two 30+ yos in the top 11 of the mens' 400 IM.
We get to see Coventry and Franklin go head-to-head in the 200 back.
The men's 100 breaststroke has the top 7 seeded within 0.69s.
Another Lochte-Phelps race in the 200 IM.
Possibly surprising:
Phelps is NOT swimming the 200 free.
Franklin IS swimming the 50 free.
