:applaud: :cheerleader: Goooooo, Maia! Swim fast and have fun!
The two Michaels are seeded next to each other in the 50 free!
24 Andrew, Michael 15 Indie Swimming-MV 23.19
25 Phelps, Michael 28 North Baltimore-MD 23.20
I think I'd put my money on Phelps, but with the way Michael Andrew has been swimming I'm not at all confident.

Especially noteworthy when you consider that their seed times are nearly 2s slower than Anthony Earvin and Nathan Adrian. That is, it's unlikely either of them will get close to the podium in this event unless there are many scratches and DQs ahead of them.
50 free!

25 Phelps, Michael 28 North Baltimore-MD 23.20
My guess is Phelps will destroy Andrew in the 50fr, and Andrew will destroy his own 100 fr seed time.
I wonder if Cordes will Br in the 50fr
