This picture brought tears to my eyes. My son @caidenzanelochte saw his daddy’s picture on the wall of the swim/dive complex, and he immediately ran up to it and touched the picture #CZL #thecutuest #UF #swimming https://t.co/EPHCKhtBKk pic.twitter.com/gx3u569jO6

My “higher order thinking” is wondering if these swimmers had 200 HP motors attached to them. #comeonman #localswimmeet @swimswamnews pic.twitter.com/rnRveaMyNn

Do we know for sure they were human swimmers?

Cal swimmer marries Stanford diver – who needs the Big Game when there’s the Big (Beautiful!) Wedding?
I think MA’s meters raced is more impressed than Grothe’s when you consider everyone else near the top of the list is 200 swimmers. He made it to that place with 50s and 100s!
He would definitely win for number of splashes.
Can someone explain the swimming stat in number 6 like I’m five
It’s very confusing, but I think it’s trying to say in 27 out of 28 events, there is one former Olympic medalist ranked in the Top 10 in the country currently. Not sure that’s what they are actually saying though.
Nathan Adrian makes me happy.
