Earlier this week, Mathias broke his own American Record in the 50 breast, touching in a 26.30.

How many times has an American record been broken with a stache? How many times since 1972?
My only contribution to this is Coleman Stewart.
Van Mathias is so ..
It’s just so unfortunate would have happened with MA achievements had he and his family weren’t so stubborn.
MA was hugely talented.
about now MA’s parents are going to anonymously hop on and brag about MAs world record without mentioning it was in a relay.
I’m willing to give him a taper meet or two with his dad as his coach again before I totally write him off.
I’m not optimistic, but I think he’ll at least get close to a PR in one of the 50s.
MA doesn’t taper. wonder what he’ll do for a living when he doesn’t make la 2028?
Even if he does make it, he’s going to have to figure out what he’s doing to do after swimming. It’s not often a swimmer didn’t go to college.
he did liberty online but MA hasn’t learned to work as part of a team. lacks marketable skills beyond making watch-me-amateur-surf videos.
Idk I cannot see him beating Mathias or McKean. Mathias is also in the 50 fly, and Ilya is right there too
What an awesome meet he had. I hope he is put on the medley relay at pan pacs. He deserves it!
Why would he not be?
He is definitely gonna be on the relay and would be surprised if someone other than him on it
Wild to think Michael Andrew no longer has a single Individual SCY, SCM, or LCM American Record.
not all that surprising. living a life of leisure catches up to all, even MA!
Does he still have 8,000 NAGs?
I will die if all his 400 IM ones are the only ones still around
has a couple junior nags. many a parent, in multiple sports, can boast about their kids’ junior records, heck mine held a national 6th grade record for three years, but MA was a freak size so just had to dive in to win against kids half his size.
That would be so ironic
He still has a bunch of SCY 13/14 & 15/16 records. Still one 17/18 also (50 Br)
yep cause the other kids MAs age were half his size. speaking of his parents, howdy phillymark aka TA or PA!
