Love them or hate them (I know some of y'all hate them and I think that's totally okay as a fan) @ASUSwimDive swimming fast all year long is exciting and it's such a breath of fresh air in a sport that has traditionally been known for having aggressive lulls in excitement.
"Once every four years..."
@packswimdive just came to Arizona, suited up, brought the HEAT, and these two teams put together one of the fastest dual meets in College Swimming history. Momentum.
They shook up the internet and to anyone who thinks I'm talking too much about ASU, you're either blind, don't understand the sport, or are intentionally ignoring reality. This team is exciting to watch and they're exciting to watch ALL YEAR LONG.
If you want to be talked about, if you want your team to be talked about, swim fast and be exciting. Simple as that.
NCAA Swimming is loaded with potential and it seems like we're starting to figure out how to better utilize it.
I'm fired up.
