I hope he scores and makes All-American. He deserves the success. Hard work pays off!!!
Coleman you’ve really improved in your interview skills, that had to be best one you have done.
Few things
In a crappy year of teams being dropped and programs being shutdown- can we all agree that this is best underdog story of the year in college swimming?
So proud of you, Blake! Glad I got to watch this all unfold firsthand. Thanks for covering this, Coleman – it’s hard for people to fully understand how incredible this kid is but this story is awesome. Go Bearcats!
I’ve only listened to 10 minutes so far, but I love this kid and I love the podcast. What an awesome story. Blake talks about how doing his college club helped him grow personally and physically. It really makes you think how many kids, especially males, never reach their potential as competitive swimmers because of not having the opportunity to gain weight and get taller because of the training and academic demands of high school. Congrats to Blake and the Cincinnati program. My Godson goes to the school and I’ve heard nothing but great things about the swimming program and coaching staff.
The legend! Let’s go buddy, you can achieve everything!
This is one of the best SwimSwam podcasts I’ve listened to. You could tell Coleman was getting more and more invested in the story as the podcast went on. Loved it
Also absolutely INSANE that Blake was swimming 30-40k a week BY HIMSELF. I haven’t heard of anyone else that has that kind of dedication
Go to USMS Nationals. You’ll find a number of such people, certainly at the low end of that range.
agreed
Yeah, and they are all former “All Americans” as well.
30-40K is not that unusual for swimming by oneself, if one’s motivated; that’s only 5-6k per workout 6x per week.
“only”
As a club-to-D1 swammer, big ups to Blake for going all the way! This is such a great story
