Four more synchronized swimmers earned their tickets to Athens posting the top four scores at an intense evaluation last week in Santa Clara, CA. Sara Lowe, Becky Jasontek, Lauren McFall, and Stephanie Nesbitt joined teammates Anna Kozlova and Alison Bartosik who qualified their duet and became the first Olympians named in January. The six will compete in the World and Pan American Teams as well.
