Brendan Hansen comes up short in 200m breaststroke

July 3, 2008 |  5:25 pm

Former world record-holder Brendan Hansen has failed to make the U.S. Olympic team in the 200-meter breaststroke.

Hansen, a bronze medalist in the event at the 2004 Athens Games, finished fourth at the swimming trials tonight, fading to finish in 2 minutes, 11.37 seconds -- for him, a shockingly slow pace. Only the top two finishers make the team.
