Changes to Meet
some very impressive swims at the 2012 AGP RESULTS
Anthony Ervin, 30 super impressive
100 fr P 50.04 F 49.90 for 4th place
50 fr P 22.30 F 22.27
both put him well within striking distance for making the 2012 team
Soni swam well as did Shanteau
notice in the 200 br 14 year old Ben Walker went 2:22.19
he dropped from 2:25 as a 13 year old in aug
Phelps & Lochte both solid, not rested or shaved
I'm sure Phelps wants to beat Lochte in the 2 IM and get back the WR
Janet Evans, 40! made her 400 & 800 OT cuts
4:17.27
1:02.06
2:06.82 (1:04.76)
3:12.35 (1:05.53)
4:17.27 (1:04.92)
Evans, Janet B 40 Una Gwsc-CA/GWSC 8:59.06 8:49.05
30.28 1:02.88 (32.60)
1:35.64 (32.76) 2:08.48 (32.84)
2:41.45 (32.97) 3:14.47 (33.02)
3:47.50 (33.03) 4:20.66 (33.16)
4:54.01 (33.35) 5:27.57 (33.56)
6:01.16 (33.59) 6:34.79 (33.63)
7:08.60 (33.81) 7:42.43 (33.83)
8:16.32 (33.89) 8:49.05 (32.73)
in the Women's 200 LC Meter Butterfly Cammile C Adams, 20 from Texas A & M Univ dropped her time to 2:06.76 making her a serious possibility
she split
29.45
32.09 1:01.54
32.90 1:34.44
32.32 2:06.76
and of course Natalie Coughlin, Missy Franklin and Allison Schmitt swam fast, those same times, if done at the 2012 US OT's should earn them their spot
What else?
the 2012 Missouri Grand Prix is next Feb. 10-12 in Columbia, Missouri
Supposedly both Phelps and Lochte will be in Charlotte at the Grand Prix - last big duel before Trials. Hope that the 200IM is in both of their programs!

50 fr P 22.30 F 22.27

I think he has a chance but he does have quite a few people ahead of him (23 on this list).

(In the 100 Free)
In the 50 Free he's much closer.
I was there Friday and Sat. nights with my boys, but you don't know me, so I don't feel overlooked!
Funny though, seeing what my 4 yr old picked up on. He was doing a very nice "air fly" after the 100 and 200 m butterfly, which melted my heart. Then yesterday at the pool, he stood on the side of the pool, leaned over to splash water on his face, stood up, adjusted his goggles, took a track start stance, swung arms back, jumped in with a belly flop, and then SWUM UNDERWATER for a bit, surfaced, and pounded the life out of the water swimming to the other end. So cute and I am so proud!:applaud:
