July 2, 2012
OMAHA, Nebraska - Former Wolfpack All-American Cullen Jones is once again going to the Olympics. This past weekend at the U.S. Olympic Trials, Jones emerged victorious in the men's 50 free and was second in the 100 free.
Jones stormed to the finish out of lane two in 21.59, beating Anthony Ervin's semifinal time of 21.74 as the top Trials time in textile. The swim moved him to second in the world behind only Cesar Cielo, while also clinching Jones a second individual swim in London after taking second in the 100-meter free earlier in the meet.
