Congratulations to Brendan! I don’t know how much longer he has until graduation from law school, but I hope he will consider increasing his training to make a run at the US Olympic Team, because his stroke is powerful!
Congrat’s also to Jared! I’m sure all of SwimSwam’s members were as jealous of him as I was; swimming in a USNational Trials Final is a dream for many! I noticed that his 100 time dropped significantly too! You have my support as you prepare for the Olympic Trials as well, Jared! Plus, it will be great for SwimSwam to have a reporter on the “inside” to get us juicy details nobody else can report! LOL!
