Maybe find another good 200 freeer and really forget about Hoff. Just remember, when she was on the 4 x 200 relay in Beijing, they got 3rd. Vollmer, Schmitty, and Kukors are great together. They just need to find that fourth person to solve the puzzle. Maybe it will be Coughlin, who knows. Those three girls really brought some light back to the US 4 x 200 relay. :applaud:
UMMM...Katie Hoff had the fastest split on that relay by far (she was 1:54) so she was probably the primary reason that they even won a medal. Coughlin was a 1:57 and I believe that Burckle and Schmitt were also 1:57's. I don't think that Hoff should be written off. Unfortunately illness hit her too close to World Trials but I believe that she will be back and will be a major player in the 200 free! On the other hand, I can see Coughlin sticking to shorter events once she returns.
