Kaitlin Is Competing at WUGs, Not Pan Ams

Posted June 21, 2007 at 7:11 pm by Suz in Doing the right thing, Press Screw-Ups

Kaitlin SandenoWhen I received the latest USA Swimming Media Release in my inbox yesterday, I literally thought I had lost my mind. Why? Because of the following passage:

Rio-Bound: California’s own Olympic gold-medalist Kaitlin Sandeno will be in Santa Clara to prepare for an immediate challenge as she winds down her training for the upcoming Pan American Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (July 14-21). The Californian returns to her home state to compete against a stacked field just weeks before departing for South America.

I could have sworn that K-Dawg was swimming at the World University Games in August. But this release had me thinking “Hey, maybe they switched her to the Pan-Am squad?” Yea, not the case.

A quick email to Kaitlin cleared everything up and I am not losing my mind after all! She is going to Bangkok for WUGs, not Rio for Pan Ams. Sheesh!

In addition to that little mess-up, the release also said that the Santa Clara meet was the 4th stop on the 2007 Toyota Grand Prix circuit. It is not. It is the 5th. Oy vey.

Can someone please go to NYC and persuade Sara Hunninghake to come back? USA Swimming desperately needs her!
