\nSixteen-year-old Sandy Neilson was the third fastest American in the women\u2019s 100 free to qualify for the U.S. Olympic team in 1972. When she got to Munich, she also had to race world record holder Shane Gould. No matter: Neilson won the event… and with that upset victory nearly 44 years ago, she is now \u201cThe Last American\u201d woman to be crowned the outright Olympic champion in the 100 freestyle.<\/em><\/p>\n![\"Thomas](\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/thomas-maine-150x150.jpg\")

\nAfter Gabe Woodward graduated from USC in 2001, it seemed that his swimming career was over. For nearly two years, he didn\u2019t race or train. But his strong faith brought him back to the sport in 2003. He prayed that he would be able to honor the Lord by humbly fulfilling the potential he had been given as an athlete. With that prayer, his dream of making the 2004 U.S. Olympic team began to unfold.<\/em><\/p>\n![\"josh-schneider-50-freestyle-\"](\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/josh-schneider-50-freestyle-usa-swimming-nationals-2015-2247-e1453920335898-150x150.jpg\")

\nA common misconception is that it is necessary to \u201cswim through the pain\u201d to optimize performance. Whether a swimmer suffers\u00a0<\/em>shoulder pain from conditioning or injury, continuing normal training can negatively impact technique (and performance). This article presents the characteristic technique elements that stress the shoulder on butterfly and freestyle to help swimmers and coaches identify problems before they become injuries.<\/em><\/p>\n
