MEN’S 50 FREE:

- BRONZE: Robert Howard, Alabama, 19.14
Auburn’s Zach Apple made waves tonight, touching just .15 shy of his lifetime best to clip Tennessee’s Kyle Decoursey and Alabama’s Robert Howard for the gold. Bama’s Zane Waddell was the next man to the wall, out-touching Texas A&M’s Adam Koster 19.43 to 19.45. Tennessee’s Alec Connolly had the 6th fastest time of t he night with a 19.48 from the B final.
Is this article mistitled?
Why would they say this lol? He doesn’t swim IM and Dressel just went 1:38….. Not to mention, Apple’s teammate Hugo just went the second fastest time this year, as a FRESHMAN. Obviously pure bias going on since swimswam is run by some Auburn guys.
Nice interview. Class act. Wishing you well!
Maybe not in the 2 IM–but this guy definitely has a future in the sport.
