Sounding like brooks might be left off the finals team.

Prelims don’t mean much, but it’s good that they qualified with ease

Looking forward to watching the race

Curry probably won't make the Finals relay. Didn't he split the slowest around 48.8? While he was the lead-off and didn't get that relay start, that was off.

A bummer he didn't make the finals relay, but nothing but positives from this.

-Historic for LSU swimming, first Olympic gold I believe. Will be big for recruiting.
-Curry got great international experience and can take that back to him with his training.
-He is going to be hungry for 2024, which he can make a big impact.
-Can be a boost to others on the LSU team to see what all the hard work can pay off with if you really work hard and make sacrifices.
-US Swimming is going to start putting some resources into our team, which hasn't had those resources since mid 90s.
