Jack Kelly has been making waves in the pool since graduating from Brown University last year. The 3x NCAA finalist in the breaststroke events decided he would give pro swimming a go and moved to Austin to train with Bob Bowman. Since making the move, Kelly has progressed immensely, not only going best times in all 3 breaststroke distances, but showing a ton of consistency throughout the last year.
He broke the 1:00 barrier for the first time in December, but has since dipped under it on 6 different occasions. He’s also been under the 27-second barrier in the 50 breast twice and the 2:10 barrier once in the 200. He’s qualified to swim all 3 events at the European championships in August.
Kelly discusses what it’s been like training with Bowman, racing in the Ivy League, and being a lifelong New York Knicks fan.
