Spectating my first BIGTEN meet

I happened to have practice around the same time as the U of M vs Texas vs IU meet today.  It was probably the most exciting dual (tri)... we'll just say "non-conference" meet I've ever seen.  Certainly some of the fastest swimming I've seen even counting conference meets.  Since I only really care about backstroke, I watched a 50 back in 22.5 seconds and a 100 back in 47.7... just smokin fast for this time in the season!  Texas and U of M were both spectacular.  IU was a little bit lacking during this meet, they sort of got trampled by both teams but definitely had quite a few solid swims.  I've spent so many years cheering for EMU it felt sort of wrong to cheer for U of M guys today but they certainly earned my support.  They had a fantastic meet and won by 1 point against Texas!  It was an incredible finish, I'm proud of all the guys I trained with this summer!
