Thanks Maddy...you were an inspiration to so many last night as the guest speaker at the DIAA All-State Banquet. Poised,accomplished,humble...family traits,so it seems. You are surely continuing to make your brother smile.

Were drugs involved in this death? Most likely. Those swimmers use performance enhancing fish oils etc. to gain an unfair advantage! Just look at the coach of Sven Kramer! The dope messed him up so bad that he told Sven to change lanes thus eliminating him!
It is very sad to hear of the loss of Fran Crippen; he was definitely an amazing individual and extraordinary athlete, Our hearts go out to his entire family. In this video, Fran talks about a prior race, and (at about 5:03 minutes into the video) noted that he hadn't been feeling well and vomited while swimming. We're wondering if nausea and vomiting is common in this sport, or if it may have signaled that his body had been over-working itself at that time.
I just heard the news and I've been crying...can't believe you're gone...you were one of the nicest swimmers on f/b who took the time and wrote on my wall...I'll never forget you Fran...always in my heart ❤
AUSTRALIA RULES!
