Too bad the writer kept referring to Cal as "Cal Berkley" but good news. Too bad she'll only be swimming for Cal for two years.

Yeah.....plus more Cal medals at the Olympics. Even though she'll only be here 2 years before going to the Rio games and going pro, we can still claim her.. a great commit.

she may set school records at "our" meets, but not likely to be world records. Swimmers peak for the big meets....

That's AWESOME! I remember thinking during the Olympics as she talked about idolizing Natalie (having her wall covered with Nat stuff is cool!) that she might want to follow in her footsteps. And I'm sure Tara had her ear once or twice in London and before also!

Actually, I guarantee she will set no world records at our meets. College meets are short course yards (i.e., measured in yards in a 25 yd pool), and only swims in long course meters count for world records (i.e., meters in a 50 meter or 55 yard pool).

It's especially good news since our most famous swimming alum is now a zombie.

If Tedford was coaching the Women's Swim Team you know she'd be redshirted and then kept on the side of the pool in favor of another swimmer's half sister who can barely float!
