I went to the University of Iowa and I didn't realize we had a swim team.

Holy crap. My school pride goeth before the fall or something else that is tangentially related.

[–]Apostrophizer 1 point2 points ago

It's understandable. I only knew about it because I read an article about the team in the DI today.

[–]sindrome198 2 points3 points ago

I wonder how many UI redditors there are. And I rarely read the DI, kind of crap but meh.

Grad student at UI right now. I don't read the DI very often either. They just end up in a pile in my apartment.

I knew one of the swimmers that got a full ride scholarship to swim there. This kid made the olympic team his first year swimming. I don't doubt their talent.

[–]SicSemperTyrannis 0 points1 point ago

I can't think of any US Olympic swimmers that went to University of Iowa, who was it?

[–]aquaschultz 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

He didn't swim in the finals. Just made the team. I wanna say his name was Jordan but I can't be for sure. He won all the events at state that he could his senior year, and damn he was fast. So I never doubted when I heard he made the olympic team.

[–]SicSemperTyrannis 0 points1 point ago

Cool, I'm a huge fan of swimming, so I was just wondering. Looks like Jordan Huff from University of Iowa has Olympic Trials cuts, which is quite an achievement. The team gets named after Olympic Trials in June.

[–]aquaschultz 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Sounds familiar. I did some research and it was him. Maybe he will make the team this next june. He swam 200 free style and 100 freestyle in high school. He kicked some major ass. Junior year swam a 45 sec. 100 free, and senior year a 1:41 in the 200 at the state meet. Pretty good times for being so young. He is probably a junior at Iowa now, he was in my class.

You go to a Big Ten school, of course you have a swim team.

I'm scared to death to think that there is out there, somewhere, a picture of me taken in the precise moment that I look somewhat like this.

At my high school on the day of swim meets everyone gets a sign that gets posted on their locker saying something like "Swim hard" or "Beat -insert school name" but I think next meet I will post this picture.

Wow I really can't tell the difference between male and female athletes sometimes... Shaving all your body hair doesn't help either.

[–]ThePowerglove 1 point2 points ago

I suppose it doesn't help my case since I have hair to the middle of my back as a male swimmer.
