The Mutual of Omaha Duel in the Pool is Tuesday
In just its second year, the Mutual of Omaha Duel in the Pool – held this year in Irvine, Calif., on Aug. 2 – will be a coming out party for some young stars, a chance for established stars to continue their domination and a chance for standouts entering their final quadrennial to further cement their legacies.

Seemed like a relatively uneventful meet to me. A couple of good swims, but for the most part there were some really off times.
If you take Thorpe and Hackett out of the Aussie line up, they have very little left. I think Australia better get their feeder programs going because when those two retire, they're virtually sunk.
Then again, the US swimming age group enrollment for boys is hurtin' pretty bad as well. Phelps is not a reflection of the general popularity and sucess of the sport here in the US. He is a lucky anomolly. We've got problems when it comes to increasing male enrollment and future success as well.
