WTF? chris DQed in 200 bk
did he SDK too far
he went like 2:12 or 13
Yes, past the 15m mark on the start (I took the same # of kicks as always but was slightly deeper than usual). I went 2:12.2 and was happy with the swim...other than that small little thing. :) First time I've been called on that; in fact, first time I've been DQ'd in over 20 years.
Actual words from the official afterward: "That was a great swim, congratulations! But I'm going to have to DQ you."
Coach Chris told me they also DQ'd one of his swimmers on her backstroke finish: submersing herself with one of those underwater lunges (which I've always hated). That's an unusual call, and a little hard to make.
