Pan Pacs Predictions: Braden Keith

Braden Keith of The Swimmer's Circle has returned to post some Pan Pacs picks. In his own words: "Braden's picking the Pan-Pacs to be more predictable than USA-Nationals were. He's got the USA sweeping the relays, and Australia winning all of the silvers except for the men's 800 free. He's also looking for a big rebound from Dana Vollmer, who he has winning 3 events (100 fly, 200 fly, 100 free). He also has Phelps getting upset in the 200 fly by Nick D'arcy from Australia."

He also sees Yolane Kukla winning her first ever international race (50 fly), while other notable winners include Kathleen Hersey (women's 200 fly), Peter Vanderkaay (men's 400 free), Guilherme Guido (men's 50 back), and Belinda Hocking (women's 200 back), while he has Brenton Rickard and Rebecca Soni sweeping the men's and women's breaststrokes, respectively, while he predicts the USA to sweep the relays.
