The last underwater man!! He gained half a body length with that

Can't wait to see his LC 400 this summer

[@realalbertan]

The build to his home Olympics is gonna be sick.

It's too bad the college championship meets aren't LCM.

That last turn holy fuck

[@MrKernkraft4000]

That was a great swim by Hugo.

Amazing! The second best guy was also awesome!

[@Poundcakebowler]

I haven’t seen this pool in competition anywhere since the 1990 Goodwill.

[@oreyo4866]

YES FOR ONCE HE’S IN LANE 4

I want Carson Foster to pull it off....but I think Marchand is going to drop a 36.5 at NCAAs

[@FisheroniW]

carson need that breastroke power bro

[@sethaldrich6902]

Sadly Marchand is just too good, foster doesn't have the breastroke or the underwaters

I don't know who this female commentator is but she is priceless! RIGHT on the MONEY. We need way MORE of this kind of stroke analysis. Drop Ledecky-gushing pie-in-the-sky "commentator" Rowdy Gaines already. THIS kind of coverage is very much appreciated!

[@CampCucumber]

No, she sucks. She is an Olympian who literally sounds like she read a book “how to swim for dummies” last week.

[@EricAngle]

Her name is Amy Van Dyken. 1996 and 2000 Olympian. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amy_Van_Dyken

@@EricAngle I was thinking that was her, but I was too lazy to look it up. She's excellent.
