Two heartbreakers happened this morning... I had two friends miss the semifinals or finals by one place!
Emily Brunenmann got 9th in the 800 free prelims and is first alternate in the Finals.
Derick Roe is 17th in the 50 free and is first alternate in the Semifinals.
I was really pulling for both swimmers! I'm really hoping somebody scratches in both events. If so they would both get another swim! Great job to both Emily and Derick! I'll also be watching Kara Lynn Joyce in the 100 Free final tonight, she's seeded 6th and they take the top 2 for the event and top 6 for the relay. Good Luck Kara!
