2016 Trials Throwback: How Missy Franklin Shined With Moxie and Class<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

As Swimming World revisits the 2016 Olympic Trials<\/a>, we offer this piece from the SwimVortex archive. The column takes a look at the way Missy Franklin not only rose to the occasion in the 200 freestyle in Omaha, but how she admirably carried herself during a difficult week.<\/em><\/p>\n

*****************************<\/p>\n

By John Lohn<\/p>\n

Sometimes, as the adage goes, timing is everything.<\/p>\n

Not long before the athletes walked onto the deck for the start of the women\u2019s 200 freestyle<\/a> at the United States Olympic Trials on Wednesday night, Katy Perry\u2019s<\/strong> \u201cRoar\u201d blared from the CenturyLink Center\u2019s speakers. The song was nothing more than part of the nightly programming, designed to entertain fans and generate a festive atmosphere.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the song was seemingly meant for Missy Franklin<\/strong>. Through the first three days of Trials in Omaha, Franklin struggled. She\u2019s not in peak form this week, and when she finished seventh in the 100 backstroke on Day Three, gone was the opportunity to defend her Olympic title in the event. A question surfaced: Could Franklin potentially not qualify for this summer\u2019s Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro?<\/p>\n

No way, and that\u2019s where the Perry lyrics come into play.<\/p>\n

I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter.<\/em>
\nDancing through the fire.<\/em>
\n\u2018Cause I am a champion, and you\u2019re gonna hear me roar.<\/em>
\nLouder, louder than a lion.<\/em>
\n\u2018Cause I am a champion, and you\u2019re gonna hear me roar!<\/em><\/p>\n

Indeed, Franklin summoned her champion\u2019s pedigree and tapped into what is, perhaps, her greatest attribute: Her heart. As Katie<\/strong> Ledecky<\/strong> stormed to victory in 1:54.88, a three-way battle unfolded for the second individual bid to Rio \u2013 Franklin dueling with Leah<\/strong> Smith<\/strong> and reigning Olympic champ Allison Schmitt<\/strong>. Who would earn that coveted berth? Franklin wasn\u2019t letting it get away.<\/p>\n

Fourth through the first lap and at the midway point, Franklin moved into second place behind Ledecky on the third lap and maintained that position at the wall, touching in 1:56.18, almost a half-second up on Smith and .54 ahead of Schmitt. As the camera panned to Franklin at the finish, showing her face on the arena\u2019s Jumbotron, she was beaming. All right, Franklin is always smiles, but in this instance, it was a Joker-sized grin, a sense of relief clearly evident in the 21-year-old coached by Todd Schmitz<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI told (Franklin) after the race that she\u2019s one tough cookie,\u201d Ledecky said. \u201cShe got the job done. That race is for real, and there\u2019s more to come from her.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The 200 free will be one of the most hotly contested events in Rio, perhaps the most anticipated on the female schedule. While the U.S. brings Ledecky and Franklin to the deck, Italy\u2019s Federica Pellegrini<\/strong>, Sweden\u2019s Sarah Sjostrom<\/strong> and Australia\u2019s Emma McKeon<\/strong> will be right there, a place on the podium their focus, too.<\/p>\n

But there will be another opportunity to go over the outlook of the event. For now, Franklin deserves attention for her gutsiness, her performance the definition of determination and perseverance. If a seminar is ever put together for Team USA rookies on how to handle adversity and pressure situations, Franklin should be the keynote speaker.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast night was really tough,\u201d Franklin said of her 100 backstroke setback. \u201cBut I was telling myself, \u2018I\u2019m not done fighting. I\u2019m not done believing in myself.\u2019 That\u2019s probably the most-proud race I\u2019ve ever swam in my entire career \u2014 coming back from such a loss and telling myself that I still have it in me to do whatever I believe I can do. It\u2019s moments like this, you kind of have to sit back and say, \u2018You know what? I just did it.\u2019\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Even for someone of Franklin\u2019s ilk, someone who has reached the pinnacle of her sport as an Olympic champion, it\u2019s difficult to not dwell \u2013 at least somewhat \u2013 on the difficulties at hand. Franklin admitted to the media that this version of Trials feels different than the last, the pressure amped up due to her stature in the sport, and the expectations placed on her shoulders. As a five-time medalist from the 2012 Games, Franklin became a Golden Girl of Team USA and an athlete NBC Sports would no doubt make a focal point of its coverage. That\u2019s not an easy scenario to handle.<\/p>\n

Despite that pressure and the natural doubts that sift into the mind when an Olympic bid remains unsecure, Franklin did not deviate from her normal persona. She remained her bubbly self (at least in public) and was analytical about her job: She needed to go out, produce to the best of her ability and let things fall into place.<\/p>\n

When it came to those around her on the deck, Franklin could not have been more gracious in the way she handled her defeat in the 100 backstroke. There were congratulations for qualifiers Olivia Smoliga<\/strong> and Kathleen Baker<\/strong>, not a glimpse of jealousy. It takes a unique person to possess \u2013 and genuinely adhere to \u2013 that type of personality.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to be really hard to not be in (the 100 backstroke) this summer,\u201d Franklin said. \u201cBut I cannot wait to watch how (Smoliga) and (Baker) do, and can\u2019t wait to see what they\u2019re capable of.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So it went, with Missy Franklin moving on and choosing to not look back. There was work ahead, and another opportunity to accomplish why she came to Omaha. Ultimately, it took her a little under two minutes to achieve her goal. And in the category of intangibles, the young woman who is a leading face of her sport turned to the guts and grit that define her as much as her effervescent demeanor.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople say there\u2019s nothing like making your first Olympic Team,\u201d Franklin said. \u201cBut there\u2019s nothing like making your second Olympic Team, either.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
