Van Mathias surprised many, including himself, this weekend in Bergen. He started by throwing down a 58.19 100 Breast to scare the American record before breaking the AR in the 50 Breast two days later with a 26.39. After having qualified for Pan Pacific Championships with his swims at Nationals last summer, Mathias is now even more motivated to throw down in Irvine this August.

He must be excited for the LA 50s
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
realistic chance he can help USA break the medley world record at pan pacs.
52.1
57.8
50.1
46.7
And 50.1 is slow for the fly
if Alexy replicates his 45.95 it could be almost a second faster
Where is that 52.1 coming from?
Modglin was 52.5 last summer. You think he’s not gonna be faster after his 43.2 in yards?
someone will do it, trust me. You can play around with the first and last leg like a 52.3 and mid 46 anchor
46.0 at least for Alexy if he has a good swim
dang he’s cute, i’m going to very much enjoy when he gets more screen time in future televised swimming events 🥰
