Hi! I'm just wondering who's coming? I'll be there! 50 free, fly and back, 100 free and back, and 3KM in the sea. I'll be wearing an t-shirt with "ITALIA" and "Maryyyy" printed on it. Anyone else? It would be nice to meet you while your here. Mary Lokken Nuoto Club Firenze Florence, Italy

    Oh yeah, the three men winning the gold for the USA in the 400IM (misti as they say) were William Johnston, Todd Spieker, and Jens-Peter Berndt. Tomorrow's events will be the 200 freestyle and the 50 backstroke, as well as a mixed relay. Which one, I didn't notice. Wednesday has the 200 BUTTERFLY (excuse the upper case), the 50 freestyle, and the 100 backstroke. Thursday has about forty 'lebben swimmers doing the open water 3000 meters before leaving for tours or home.

So does the Indy pool qualify as a long or short bathtub? :D

    Hi, Like many, I'm a disgusted with the meet organizers avarice and paucity with respect to the meet results. I would really like to know how my friends did in the meet - I did not expect the great on-line coverage we get from USMS Nationals - results on-line within minutes of race finish - but I did hope to see the results and splits within the day. After some research and reformatting, I'd like to offer the following information that was dervived from the FIN website - partial gold medal results, country and world record counts for results (as of Tuesday). I don't speak Italian, so all translation errors are mine. On the New Mexico Masters Website, there is a link to the gold medal results: www.zianet.com/.../ I'll update the page as soon as the Italian FIN publishes their results. I know that we will do a better job in Stanford!! See you in the water, Philipp

    So, anyway, the USA winners of the women's 50 backstroke were Agnes Janet Cederlund and Betty Lorenzi, and the men were Paul Hutinger, Peter Van Dijk, Richard Weick, Tom Geiman, and Derek Robinson. John Van Buren of Canada also won but did not equal the world record he set in Edmonton last month. The 200 freestyle women winners were Rita Simonton, Suzanne Heim-Bowen, Charlotte Peterson, and (naturally) Nadine Day! The men winers were Frank Grannis, Donald McIntosh, and Jack Groselle.
