I caught a bit of the Olympic trials on the Tele over the weekend, and much to my surprise, we have a couple of Olympic hopefulls right here in North Dakota.
Minot's Matt Lowe and Dagny Knutson will both be in the running (technically swimming) for a berth in the Olympics next week.
I have no idea what their odds of making the squad are, or what the swimming situation is this year - guess I'll have to catch it on TV and figure it out with the rest of America.
Chris Bieri, who is hopefully not regretting picking up too many Brewers inhis fantasy baseball draft, from the Minot Daily News handles the story here.

Is there a better ND sports story right now than Laura Roesler? She has made the semifinals in the Olympic Trials for track and will be running again tonight.

I dunno...Kyle Carr signing with the Twins was pretty cool. I don't know how others feel about it, but having talked with Kyle a bit, I might not be completely impartial either. I haven't ever spoken with Roessler, so I didn't really feel that much of a connection to her running in the trials. Still, it is pretty impressive what she did. tough call.
