I guess it isn't surprising that Stanford Swimming & Diving GoStanford news page hasn't mentioned this. I hope they do follow up on her condition.
Yesterday's disqualification of Stanford in the women's 400 medley relay has hurt their chances of a 2nd place finish overall. Torri Huske, swimming butterfly on the 3rd leg (previous swimmer was swimming breaststroke), left too early (-.06 reaction time; the limit is -.05 I think). Stanford would have gotten 2nd, for 56 points (and the Cal relay moved up by a place, giving them 2 extra points). At the end of the day, the Stanford women are in 3rd, 62.5 points behind Cal. (230 points behind UVa) instead of 4.5. I don't think any of UVa, Cal, or Stanford are too concerned about their ranking in the conference meet.
The negative reaction time by the butterfly swimmer suggests that the breaststroker took an extra stroke that the next swimmer didn't expect. I haven't seen video though.
This meet seems inordinately long - 5 days of swimming events, both men and women. That's one day longer than the PAC-12 championships, which were 4 days but the men's and women's were separate. Add in arriving early for time zone acclimatization. Oh well, so much for classes....
The men are 2nd in the conference championship hunt going into the final day, about 30 points behind Cal.
