And he'll be detained and deported the minute his plane hits US soil.
"Previously, as a recipient of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, Grijalva needed special permission (advance parole) to travel outside the United States and faced the risk of being denied re-entry. However, according to recent reports from August 2024, Grijalva has been granted an O-1 visa, which is designated for individuals with extraordinary abilities in fields like sports. This new visa status allows him to travel internationally without the need for special permits or the fear of re-entry issues.
That was then, this is now. Hope he makes it back.
Lots of fast times in the men's and women's fives - looking at the results "PB" is a constant. Pretty good weather around 60 degrees and presumably little wind. Luis getting back to sub-13 is awesome - approaching his 1250 PB.
