While perusing the heat sheets for next week's Nationals, I saw a familiar name: Claudia Poll, an Olympic gold-medalist from Costa Rica. I'm excited to see her swim.
I got to wondering... how many other Olympians are entered in the meet? Not having grown up swimming I am sure that there are a lot of names I didn't catch. Please add to my list! The meet roster can be found here.
The ones I have found so far are:
Claudia Poll
Rowdy Gaines
Chris Stevenson
Jim Montgomery
Nice job in LA in 84. Why was your first name spelled with a K at that time?
It wasn't...double translation (English to Greek back to English). The Greek language doesn't have a letter 'C', only a 'K' (kappa).
