ABSTRACT
The article brings out the possibilities of who would make an impact in the July 2004 Olympic Trials. Although he's been light-lipped as to his schedule for the Olympic Trials, Michael Phelps has the arsenal to walk away from the next Olympiad with as many as 10 gold medals, a greater achievement than the Lucky Seven rolled by Spitz at the Munich Games in 1972. A member of the Pan Am squad, Dana Vollmer left the Dominican Republic with a meet record in the 100 meter fly (59.35) and gold-medal hauls in the 200 free (1: 59.80), 800 free relay and 400 medley relay.
