Rose + Caeli Mckay less than point away from bronze in their events after suffering a badly sprained ankle. Couldn't ask for more. 4 NR's in swimming (100m free, 400m free, 4x200 relay and 4x100 m relay men). They did their best and really no room for improvement at the time. Caroline Veyre gave it her all and won some points, she wasn't expected to beat her Italian opponent anyways. Shady El Nahas fought hard in the bronze medal match against 2 time defending WC Fonseca of Portugal Kai Langerfeld and Conlin McCabe had a great pairs race, and werent' expected to medal, so their medal was remarkable. The only one that is hard to take is Arthur Margelidon's performance. He made a small mistake costing him the medal Yea, I would have liked more medals, but the end of the day these are ALL remarkable performances, which we should ultimately be happy with Totally agree. They did very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They scored better than the Italians on every dive but one and were off the podium by half a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omg wow how amazing is this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully there are no Norwegian refs this time. intoronto and Canada4thewin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
