NANTERRE, France (AP) — The American swimmers collected plenty of hardware Monday night at the Olympic pool.
Katie Grimes and Emma Weyant stood side by side on the Paris podium. Ryan Murphy picked up the seventh medal of his illustrious career. Luke Hobson earned his first in a stirring race.
But none of them were gold.
In a way, it felt like a changing of the guard, especially when Murphy could only manage a bronze and longtime breaststroke stalwart Lilly King was edged out of a medal by a mere hundredth of a second.
