To say that I'm excited that Simone won the gold is an understatement! 9 years ago, Simone's Mom was the first "fellow" African-American swim parent I had ever met. And we'd run into each other when our daughters (same age) swam at TAGS. We have been looking forward to this race for years!

And you weren't able to talk her daughter into going to A&M?

Seems like quite a few of the American women swimmers go to or went to Stanford. How did Stanford do at the NCAA's?

They are usually one of the Top 3-4 teams - Auburn, Stanford, Georgia and Cal.

They finished out of the Top 10, this year. I think that was mainly because many of their top swimmers didn't compete in NCAA, in order to prepare for the Olympics.

Katie Ledecky, for instance...

Dallas Ag, you could have included us in the top 4 usual suspects. 10 years in the top 10, 5/10, 4th. Last four years, we have been 4th.

Hellcat beat me to it. Auburn is a shell of their former self and we have stepped into that spot very well the last four years.

Stanford was a DQ'd relay away from winning NCAA's for the first time in quite a long time this past March -- and that was without Manuel and Ledecky. Now they will have both. #yikes

Stanford also gets Kassidy Cook back from an Olympic redshirt in diving.
