Wait… all you have to do to get out of finals is put in thousands of hours of training and become really, really, really good at swimming? Count us in.

The Official @SIUC @SIUSalukis @SIU_SwimDive Distraction Squad does their thing messing with heads of the NIU free throws shooters at @SIU_WBasketball. All the Saluki teams are great at supporting one another, but @SIU_SwimDive is the absolute best! #ThisIsSIU #SalukiProud pic.twitter.com/FlSXHgeek2

The longer you look at this, the harder it is to reconcile that Josh Prenot is almost 6 feet tall.

Realized I was wearing off brand Swedish goggles at practice this morning. Like how cheap do I have to be to not even be wearing real Swedes????
— Lilly King (@_king_lil) December 5, 2018
All lies. I have only ever practiced in 4 pairs of Swedes since I started wearing them in 8th grade. That is a total goggle budget of $12 for 7 years of swimming😂

When you spend more on Crocs than goggles >>

Having a nap is literally the human equivalent of 'have you tried turning it off and back on again?' 😂 #troubleshooting #worksalmosteverytime
