How many guys from other countries does it take to win a National Championship?
Good thing they all attended classes on campus the entire year..... :-)
Makes everyone feel proud to see the American Record holder on the 4th place podium.
Question to all you altruistic international lovers of the sport. Last year the the Lazer was banned because not all the schools had access to the suit. This year a new suit pops up with new technology in the manufacturing and not eveyone has access to it. Does this not hit an ethical chord with any of you?
There are so many versions of tech suits now it is difficult to differentiate. It doesn't seem like teams wearing LZRs were at a disadvantage. What was the time advantage of the Italian suits? Were they not available for purchase by any school that worked hard enough and had enough money (just like the LZR)? You are talking about those hideous brown suits, right?
