On SwimSwam Podcast, we’re giving you an in-depth listen at all things swimming. Host Coleman Hodges welcomes guests and guest co-hosts alike to get perspective on our ever-changing swimming universe and break down the past, present, and future of aquatic sports.
I sat down with Alyssa Marsh, the Duke swim star who is one of the newest members of the LA Current in the ISL. Marsh, the daughter of 2016 Olympic head coach David Marsh, has always kept a healthy balance between swimming and whatever else is going on in her life. She admittedly isn’t the best practice swimmer but talks about what she gained from not doing doubles for most of her high school career and teaching full-time currently while trying to make season 2 of ISL work.

this is great stuff! she’s impressive!
really not much reason to have hope for humanity seeing the never ending downvotes
Going out on a limb here, but guessing that a sports comment board is probably not the best place to judge humanity.
There’s always been a substantial FoxNews/Breitbart/QAnon element in SwimSwam Comments…
I find an Obama loving/left wing tone from many posters. I also read comments which would seem to support President Trump and FOX. Good that we can query, tease, troll and speak intelligently on a variety of topics – ALL UNITED BY OUR LOVE OF THIS SPORT. All of these elements are part of the human condition. As long as Ol’ Longhorn and I do not take each other too seriously, we demonstrate freedom of expression. No sting there!
Y’all put way too much into the downvotes. Sam, for example, received downvotes for complaining about downvotes – that’s absolutely the best way to get downvotes.
I think everyone has their own definition of what a downvote means. Some of it is college rivalries – which are good for swimming and, when not taken too seriously, fun for everyone. Some people might just think a comment is boring or platitudinal.
Some may be A&M fans who are playing out their old rivalry with Brackin/Texas.
Some could be people who are sad that she left SD/Team Elite because they miss her. Or people who think San Diego is better than New Orleans.
And some could be just comment bots or people… Read more »
Boring…. 😴 😉
Hard to understand the down votes. It’s fine to hate on David Marsh, as many people in the SD area do, but I’m not understanding what his daughter has done to offend anybody. She seems to be a great representative of our sport.
I agree. People seem to just hate for hate itself, very toxic and negative. She really is impressive and humble.
“It’s fine to hate on David Marsh”
I don’t think it’s fine, unless there is a reason.
There are loads of reasons. Has left scorched earth behind at every prior stop.
Impressive young woman!
Way to go Alyssa! Love how you had confidence and faith in where your coaches put you in training, and especially knowing what YOU needed (to be a leader in training) to be most successful. Plus, it is just awesome to see the amazing, well spoken and generous woman you’ve grown up to become! Keep up the great work!
