This kid is crazy fast. I race against him all the time at SCS meets. He definitely has a future in the sport of swimming

Good looking kid. Hope he stays humble and focused. Maybe a shot at the 2020 team. Especially free relays since he was #1 freestyler in the nation as a 13 year old and already ranked in the top 5 nationally having just turned 14. Good luck kid. Nice interview too. Feet well planted.

Great photos.

I’ve remarked a new tool on swimswam! 🙂
Like or dislike.
Haha!
I’ve tested it above and it works.
I will not use it in the future but many swimswam readers will have fun with that toy.
I presume the goal is to have more like than dislike. :mrgreen:
OMG! I’m sure I will have plenty of dislike in the future! 😆
No problem with that! 🙂

You will have to send pictures.

Have a great day and thanks for supporting the Y.
