Dorman, Hixon deal big blow to Dumais’ Olympic hopes (Yahoo Sports)

Samuel Dorman and Michael Hixon struggled to find words to describe the biggest accomplishment of their lives Wednesday night. A few feet away, 36-year-old Troy Dumais, the sport’s iron man, walked down the pool deck and somberly hugged everyone he wanted to thank in what looked like a farewell lap. Dorman and Hixon never gave an opening to Dumais and Kristian Ipsen in the men’s synchro 3-meter final and claimed the first spots on the diving team bound for Rio by easily beating the defending bronze medalists in the event.
