They started Tuesday. Julia seeded 1st in 100 back after this morning's prelims.

How about a national record in her first swim?! ...and in a race she didn't even contest at NCAA's!...wow...she is completely swimming out of her mind right now...

Have we had any A&M swimming Olympians? From any country?

Don't think we've had any USA Olympians. But maybe Matt Rose?

This year could we have Alia, Julia, Triin? Who else?

I'm not sure what the A cuts are for the respective events, but Wilkinson won the 100 back tonight and Matt was 3rd. Great job!

1:01.70 is the A standard in the 100 back

It is amazing she is swimming so well two weeks after NCAAs. Very unusual to hold onto speed that long.

Hopefully this will end all discussions about Bultman's ability to get people to swim fast multiple times for good...

...and she wins the 200 IM, just missing a third national record.

Her final two races will be tough: the 100 free tomorrow against the Canadian record holder Erica Morningstar and the 200 back and ex-Longhorn Elizabeth Wycliffe (Wycliffe's speciality) on Sunday

That said, I ain't betting against her...
