1988 - The games moved across the Pacific to Seoul, South Korea and the return of the boycott teams to the games. The East German women (still on steroids and more) were tough to match - 22 medals - 10 gold, 5 silver, and 7 bronze medals (the East German men won 6 medals, for a total East German medal haul of 28). The highlight for the USA was Janet Evans, distance swimmer supreme, taking the gold in the 400 and 800 free and the 400 IM. The men's side was much more diverse, with swimmers from 8 different countries winning gold medals, including two by the USA's Matt Biondi (50/100 Free) and two by Hungary's Tamás Darnyi (200/400 IM). The US won 18 medals, coming in second in the count.
