Dara Torres did the same thing in 2008- scratching from the 100 free individual swim. They did end up including 7th place finisher Kara Lynn Joyce on the Olympic squad. Joyce then ended up swimming the 50 free at the Olympics because she was the next highest ranked swimmer on the squad in that event after Jessica Hardy was removed from the team. She made he finals in the 50, making the most of the second chance.
Swimswam is saying he got the call to be on the team this morning. I'm guessing it's not official because USA Swimming hadn't officially added any of the 5th and 6th places in the 100/200 free yet. (They were described as 'pending space available' last night even though neither side is going to go over 26 swimmers.)
