Less than a week to go until Olympic Trials get underway in Omaha, Neb. But before the meet, we wanted to look back at some of the great moments from past editions of the meet held inside the CenturyLink Center. Welcome to #TrialsThrowback!
It was the final of the women’s 100 breast at the 2012 Olympic Trials. In lane four was Rebecca Soni, the two-time World Champion in the event and the first woman to ever break the 1:05-barrier. She was seeking a spot on her second Olympic team after winning gold in the 200 breast and silver in the 100 breast four years earlier in Beijing.
In lane five was Jessica Hardy, who had won the event at Trials four years earlier but later withdrew from the Olympic team after a positive drug test. Hardy had a two-year suspension reduced to one year after she proved the positive test had resulted from a tainted supplement. In her first meet back, she broke Soni’s world record with a 1:04.45.
