Tonight, Roy battled with World Champion IMer Chase Kalisz as it came down to the touch. Through the front half, Kalisz led by about half a second as he turned in 1:02.47 to Roy’s 1:02.93. He held steady through the 150, but Roy charged home in 33.54 to Kalisz’s 34.11 to out-touch Kalisz by just under 2 tenths at the finish.
Kalisz’s swim was nearly a second faster than his former best and marked his first swim below 2:10. His former best was a 2:10.74 from the Pro Swim Series stop in Atlanta last year, which was right around this time of the season. Kalisz lowered his time to a 2:09.90 to take 2nd tonight.
Daniel Roy doesn’t train alone. He’s coached by Doug Djang at King Aquatics Club in Federal Way. He moved over from Spokane two years ago to train with Doug.
He did not move to Federal Way. He lives in Spokane. He only comes to Federal Way for competitions. He attends Gonzaga Preparatory.
Stocky little guy…
He must have some hellacious technic and really turning it over.
My inspiration. Dan, if you’re reading this, you go. Beast
Roy and Whitley are going to have a great battle up in the pac 12s
Insane! Didn’t even know Kalisz’s was a best time as well. Really making the men’s breaststroke Pan Pacs competition heat up like crazy. Just imagine when he gets to Stanford as well. Big things to come!
Usa is stacked with serious good breaststrokers right now !!! Impressive
And he self-trains…in a small town of eastern Washington!
Spokane isn’t really a small town. But he does train alone
My 1 breast time barely beats his 2nd 100 split dafuq
Same…his second 100 is almost the summer junior cut…
1:12 split in the 400 IM tonight
