From what i have heard, from several credible sources, someone on the us women's team tested positive. As of now only the persons family, roommate, and usa swimming know, but im sure it will begin to leak out. Nothing matters though until we get results of the B test.. which could be a few days or even weeks. Not sure when the test was taken, but probably trials. I will try to post more information when I get it, but if anyone could confirm or post what they know, im sure it would be appreciated

Um, so IF she is taking it, then she should have made that knowledge BEFORE swimming at trials. So regardless of WHY she took it (if she took it of her own free will) she is in violation of USA-S regulations IF she did not disclose that she was taking it. So IF it is determined that she took a banned substance without approval, she is done.
Yeah, sure, we haven't heard the 'it's not my fault' defense in a while. Hey, it MIGHT even be true. I don't have all the facts so all I have is conjecture but right now it doesn't look good. But that is why there are processes in place in USA-S to deal with these issues.
She's done. Unless she has irrefutable proof of someone doping her unwittingly...even then people don't like the stink...it's over for her.
