CLOSING CEREMONY

Thanks for the link. I thought this part was interesting, in light of the recent thread about scholarships awarded to foreign swimmers:
Dave Salo, who coaches Lezak, said the dearth of elite U.S. sprinters is partly because of the number of foreign athletes now recruited by U.S. college coaches. Schoeman and Neethling swam for the University of Arizona. Croatia's Duje Draganja, who finished fifth Thursday, swims for California.
"So much of the collegiate ranks are dominated by mature Europeans and foreign athletes that they're supplanting the American kids who aren't getting the chance to emerge as they get older," said Salo, the head U.S. men's coach in Montreal. "So we're truly not seeing a development of American sprinters in the collegiate ranks as we once used to do. Most of our dominance in the collegiate ranks for American guys has been in stroke events (breaststroke, backstroke and butterfly).
"But I think it takes a little bit more time to develop that sprinter, and I think (college coaches) are going to a more mature, little bit older European kid who's had a little bit more experience, who's coming to college at 20, 21, a little bit more seasoned veteran."
