ALL-AMERICAN LILY RAMIREZ CUT FROM FLORIDA AFTER COCAINE POSSESSION ARREST

Guest columnist Ralph Teller of 1Vigor.com explained some keys to hydration strategies for swimming, which really gave our readers something to consider as they look for every edge possible.

The recruiting news kept on rolling in as Swimming World � ve-star Chase Kalisz elected to become a Georgia Bulldog upon completion of his high school career. Kalisz, who swims for North Baltimore, has three lifetime bests that would provisionally qualify him to compete at the 2012 NCAA Division I Championships.

Swimming World intern Chelsea Howard spoke with various experts in the � eld of sports psychology to look at how mental toughness can be the di� erence between being good and great in the sport of swimming. Eliminating negative self-talk is one trick that was discussed during the feature.

In an article that was a bit darker than is typically published by Swimming World, guest editorialist Stephanie Wishmyer wrote about how several shoulder injuries caused her to quit the sport. However, her love for the positives of the sport far outweighed the physical toll she endured, that she is still a coach with the Potomac Marlins.

“STRICT LIABILITY (which is a rule that has endured, not been struck down, yet almost entirely ignored) is the only fair rule. It needs to be stuck to

and used.

Yes, you can get cross-contaminated supplements. So don’t take them, duh! If you do, as the rule says,

it’s YOUR OWN RISK.

� e bottom line is even if an athlete is unknowingly doping, they’re still getting that competitive advantage over their opponents. � at’s why half these “supplements” on the

market keep customers coming back--because they know what they’re putting in there, and it ain’t the “proprietary blend” on the ingredients label.” – Motorola_Man

“Inga Elín Cryer set a new Icelandic national record in the 400 freestyle, with a time of 4:15.13, qualifying her for the European Short Course Championships in December. Reason enough to arrange

this meet :-)” – Rokur I Jakupsstovu

“� is is pretty awesome... for such small, remote countries, they post some pretty

fast times.” - SJT

(Iceland Downs Faroe Islands, 99-81, in Short Course Meter Dual Meet --

“While this could solve the length-of-meet issue, the real issue at hand will be

the state of the warmup pool. I was at the meet in 2008, when there were around

1400 swimmers total and it was at times very di� cult to get the proper warmup in. In 2012, I wouldn’t be surprised to see over 2000 swimmers. In the same

warmup con� guration. � is promises to be a nightmare for myself and the other swimmers who need to be up and ready

for multiple events.”– Russell Payne
