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

I should have suspected something when she came out of nowhere as a freestyle sprinter.These swimmers have it drummed into their heads about PEDs and testing.They should know not to take anything without an OK.Also this is not something found in legitament supplements to my knowledge.She cheated!
My question is how many people get away with it? The risks are obvious as we all know. If the tests are not effective (i.e. only very few get caught due to the incompetency of testing) then the risk is not nearly as great. I hate being so skeptical but how can you blame me? Why would anyone in their right mind cheat if the chance of getting caught was great? If the chance is minimized by masking agents, cycling, etc. then the risk is much lower.
