Yet the Chinese swimming team was allowed to compete in Paris with clear and proven drugs in their system. Funny how that works.

Still mad. Stole at least 4 medals from Canada. McInstosh could have gotten 7 medals in Paris if the rules were enforced.

I'm gonna be so mad if Summer gets selected for 4x100 free relay duty especially now with Penny not being there. She'll already have swum 2 x 400 free + 2 x 200 IM that day already

I'd like to think the head coach isn't dumb, especially since we likely won't be favoured to win a medal.

Oliver Dawson opened up his World Junior campaign with a 1:00.28 100 breast in prelims. Now the owner of  15-17 year old national age group records for the 50, 100, and 200.

Quick Recap of Day 1 of World Juniors.

 

No medals but a 4th place finish on the girls 4 x 200m freestyle relay. Ella Cosgrove with the fastest split at 1:57.61 which is a big improvement on what she split at Worlds.

 

Boys 4x100m freestyle relay finished 7th. Laon Kim had the fastest split with. 49.33 leadoff.

 

Elsewhere, Dawson wasn't unable to match his prelims performance going 1:00.29 in the semis but still comfortably made it to the finals in 5th. It still ranks him 7th overall this year in the junior world rankings and he'll be in contention for a medal tomorrow.

 

In the girls 100m backstroke, Madison Kryger set a new PB of 1:00.38 to qualify 3rd for the finals. That also ranks 7th in the world this year among juniors.

 

Parker Deshayes also qualified for the boys 100m backstroke final in 8th and was a bit off his PB from Canadian trials.

    • need to work on the celebrations... or just drop them?   Btw, these jerseys suck and I remember Zambia playing in all white with red numbers. At least they have orange on national flag but still...    
    • British Columbia in general and Vancouver in particular are awesome and it’s great more people got to discover it thanks to Vancouver 2010.
    • And of course the British being famous for curmudgeons, there were always plenty of curmudgeons to quote.  Then of course from the opening ceremony and the cycle race on the very first morning it was obviously going to be triumph, so everyone just shut up for a while.  
    • Yep, the amount of emergency services I heard at some point was a little extreme (for our little town), so I checked what was going on and saw they were all being called to a specific location. Until then I thought maybe it was part of a parade of trucks and agricultural vehicles that was on it's way from the next town over, decorated with lights and stuff.   Since I knew it was on the parade route, I was sure one of those big vehicles had hit people somehow (there were, besides the many vehicles, also two helicopters on the way, meaning it certainly wasn't about a single victim).   We picked our bikes and went to take a look, absolutely chaos in the area. Never saw so many services combined together, fire trucks from 20km away, ambulance after ambulance came racing by, people frantically trying to make way for them (the roads weren't really closed yet).   While there we heard someone who had been close say that the parade hadn't arrived yet and what seemed to have happened was that a car from the other side came onto the roundabout and simply never turned. "It's a massive drama over there, unbelievable", he said.   Quite quickly rumours started spreading of course, the first one turned out to be true: a middle aged (local) woman was behind the wheel and seems to have become unwell. Local security camera showed the car going at high speed right before the roundabout.   Plenty of rumours going around in terms of who were involved of course, and people keeping each other up to date to see if they know this or that family and such...   Never expected my little town to be big news in the Netherlands, even including some breaking broadcasts, live reporters and everything, damn. By far the biggest thing to happen here in my memory  
    • This is the home town of our very own @heywooduand @brunamoura    
    • For me, these were very good Olympics, and British sport benefited greatly from them, and is still benefiting. I fear it will be much worse here. Canada also benefited very good on Vancouver 2010 – this is very good see in the medal standings of subsequent Winter Games after 2010 and earlier.
    • Nobody hates Britain more than the British media so… I recall it being quite a pessimistic tone before the London games started.
    • I'm curious what was written before London 2012? Did they attack their own country, or did they just keep quiet?
    • Other winners at the PanAm Sports Awards Junior 2025            
    • Very true point.  Although I think at this point everyone is just holding their collective breath until the test event.  The NHL isn't going to rage anymore until then because it's not like that would make the arena progress go any quicker
