Priyant's Predictions

Priyant Pratap from Behind the Blocks was the first to send in his predictions for Pan Pacs. Some very interesting picks. For the men, he expects Nick D'arcy to beat Michael Phelps in the 200 fly, Chad LaTourette to win the men's 1,500, and Brenton Rickard to sweep the men's breaststroke events. On the women's side, he has Jessicah Schipper taking down Liu Zige in the 200 fly, Jessica Hardy winning the 100 breast and 50 free, and Emily Seebohm sweeping the backstrokes. Despite picking against her, he also wrote: "I seriously think Emily (Seebohm) will win the 200 IM. But anyway..."

  1. Steph says she's not swimming the IMs at PanPacs. What's Pri been doing that he didn't know this?

  2. I think Pri was going by the offcial psych sheet according to which Steph IS swimming the IMs: http://www.usaswimming.org/_Rainbow/Documents/3c51ed9e-bf4e-44e1-90ab-55485a86be76/pp%20-%20psych%20sheet.pdf

    However, since this is a draft dating back to the 12th, I'm sure we'll get a clarification when the revised version gets released (hopefully soon).

  3. methinks Priyant may want to re-evaluate his predictions for the 100 Breast as Jessica Hardy has basically indicated it's very iffy for her at this point ("probably not") - see http://www.swimnetwork.com/Multimedia/Media-Center.aspx#/id=b56a0d4f-a225-4d3a-b106-6d4032700ed0

    Also the official Pan Pacific site @ http://www.panpacificswimming.com/ needs to be updated real soon as it doesn't even have the team rosters for Australia & the US ("TBA")a day and a half before the competition starts...
