Just days before his last CIF Championships (and high school meet) ever, Loyola senior Rex Maurer sat down with SwimSwam to give an insider’s look at his last two weeks.

Maurer looks to carry his momentum into this week’s CIF Champs, where Loyola is seeded to win the meet and repeat as champions.

I’m digging Coleman’s pronunciation:
“I’m here to talk about the ‘Colemanation’ of Rex’s high school career!”
I trust Rex did the equivalent of a 4:12.7 on his AP Macro Economics exam!
This boy is so well spoken. Just re installed meet mobile to see the results this lad puts down at the state championship.
He just seems like the newest crop of insanely talented young men that will entering college in the next two years!
