    Arrons hand continues to move UNDERNEATH his body, which makes it diffucult to see by the judges. If his hand were outside of the body the judges could see it and would have no problem. Never think all these great swimmers do all things to perfection. Once upon a time there was a USC swimmer how would have won a gold medal in the 400 IM by 6-8 seconds, but she never got out of trials. She did not turn torwards the *** until after the "T" on the back to *** turn. It was so obvious they had to DQ her. I can totally relate to Amanda and her strained ankle, I had that for one meet and it hurt so bad, as she said hers hurt. Yet she still swam world class times. True grit in my opinion.
