Texas’ Bob Bowman, Carol Captani Give Thoughts on Fast Dual Meet vs Indiana

Indiana vs. Texas

Texas Director of Swimming Bob Bowman and Women’s Head Coach Carol Capitani led the Texas men’s and women’s swim teams to dominant wins in their home pool versus Indiana. The women saw two team records get broken (Emma Sticklen 100 Fly, Jillian Cox 500 Free) while the men posted multiple NCAA-leading times. Bowman and Capitani both reflect on the competition and are pleased with what they saw from their team.

Interesting: who are the swimmers?! American or International athletes because they don’t represent us Americans!!!
Bob Bowman had proven it: I saw WORLD and the only American athletes who medalled was Regan Smith and Kate Douglas in the female category: some other Amazing American athletes medalled, but few and in between..so I am sick and tired of commenting on how wonderful Bowman is because it’s obvious that it’s not for the AMERICANS!!! Casing point; French Leon Marchand had decimated American Michael Phelps”s World Leading Record and now American Ryan Locke’s Would Leaders Record: and that was Bob Bowman’s plan when at the Paris Olympics, so tell us again who are these athletes because I know who they are not,… Read more »

When applying tin foil to a hat, make sure to put it under the brim AND the liner. It’s more effective.

Casas and Foster for sure. Kalisz was in Austin for the meet, don’t know if that’s an indicator that he’s there training or not. Regan will join that group at some point, but before the world cups she was swimming in Tempe. If Kibler keeps going, I assume it will be there in Austin, no idea what Madden will do.

Carol and Bob have great positive energy. I love seeing coaches having fun because then the grind for the athlete doesn’t feel like punishment.

Absolutely correct – Coach Carol has genuine charisma, is honest and kind. Coach Bob is a genius of psychology and swimming training – He even looks like a character in “Austin Powers”!

Random123 – Your response is offensive as it assumes gender; you casting me as “he’s”. Please reflect on the potentially hurtful post. It is the 21st century where ones’ gender identity, whether male, female or other, should be respected. Thank you.
