2012 Olympics: Missy Franklin Qualifies For Seven Swim Events
Missy Franklin and Michael Phelps accept their Omega watches for Male and Female Swimmers of the Meet after the 2012 U.S. Olympic Swimming Team Trials held at the CenturyLink Center last week in Omaha, Neb.
The 17-year-old swimmer broke records during the trails — qualifying for seven events for the upcoming Olympic games. No American woman had ever qualified for more than six.
“The whole week, I think, went really, really well,” Missy told USA Today.
“It went just as well as (coach) Todd (Schmitz) and I could have ever asked for, so I think we’re both thrilled. I can’t believe I have seven events. That’s so overwhelming but so exciting at the same time,” she added.
