Olympics 1984 Los Angeles Synchronized Swimming HOL Catrien Eijken & Marijke Engelen

DOG ASIDE:

Although this video sounds like it was recorded under water…..ABC’s Ester Williams and Donna de Varona provided wonderful color commentary about the sport of synchronized swimming and how it is judged….as this video is the duet routine of Catrien Eijken and Marijke Engelen of the Netherlands (Holland). Both Catrien and Marijke competed in both the women’s solo and the women’s duet competitions at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics….with the team coming in 6th place in the duet…..while Engelen came in 4th in solo….just missing a bronze medal.
