When reporters who were aware of the suspensions questioned him further, Essick stated flatly that "We will not discuss the individuals or the circumstances of the suspensions." "I guess they figured it would get out of hand," was Caulkins reaction to the AAU's closed door treatment of the issue. Some swimmers felt...
