NCAA Finalist Grant Shoults Undergoes Shoulder Surgery

By Torrey Hart on SwimSwam

USA National Teamer, NCAA finalist, and Pac-12 champion Grant Shoults underwent shoulder surgery this week after sitting out much of the fall semester with a previously undisclosed injury, he posted on Twitter Thursday.

Shoults, a junior at Stanford University, posted the following statement:

“After 3 months of battling chronic pain, I underwent successful shoulder surgery. Thank you to my family, friends, teammates, coaching staff, athletic trainers, Dr. Geoff Abrams, the Stanford Medical staff, USA Swimming, and Dr. Warren Kramer as well as the Kramer family in their never ending support and dedication to my mental and physical health. I am excited to go through life pain free with the ultimate goal at getting back to the competitive level I was at in the water. Everything happens for a reason and this is just a testament to God’s plan. I am sure that this bump in the road will allow me to grow as an individual and as a athlete. As always, I will continue being my Stanford teammates’ biggest fan as we continue striving for our goals together in and out of the water.”

The 21-year-old Shoults had a breakout summer, taking second in the 400 free at the 2018 Phillips 66 Nationals Championships to make the United States’ 2018 Pan Pacs Team. In Tokyo, he placed fourth in the 400, qualifying for the 2019 FINA World Championships team. Shoults returned to the States and sat out Stanford’s early-season dual meets, making his NCAA season debut at the Texas Invite at the end of November. There, he swam only the 500 free, going 4:20.23 in prelims and 4:28.95 in finals.

Shoults was the Pac-12 500 free champion in both of his first two seasons; he also took third in the 200 free and second in the 1650 his freshman year. He placed fourth in the 500 at both the 2017 and 2018 NCAA Championships.

Though losing Shoults – who totaled 18 points at last year’s NCAAs and 42 at conference – is a big hit to the Stanford men, the team remains relatively deep in mid-to-long-distance freestyle events. Freshman Jack Levant currently ranks in the top six in the nation in both the 200 and 500 free (and nabbed a Stanford record in the 200 in Texas), and junior NCAA finalist True Sweetser currently is 12th in the 500. In the mile, Sweetser, sophomore Johannes Calloni, and junior James Murphy all rank in the top-10 nationally.

SwimSwam has reached out to Stanford for a timeline on Shoults’ recovery process.

Tokyo 2020 Olympic Torches To Use Recycled Aluminum From Fukushima

By Loretta Race on SwimSwam

In addition to sourcing its Olympic Games’ medals by recycling discarded smartphones and other small consumer electronics, Tokyo 2020 organizers are also now planning to use recycled aluminum for the Olympic torches used in the pre-Games relay.

The aluminum to be recycled is expected to come from temporary housing constructed in Japan’s Fukushima, a prefecture stricken by earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster in 2011. The torches are expected to consume over 10,000 pieces of aluminum as a symbolic effort to uphold ‘reconstruction Olympics’, one of the primary messages of the Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Back in April of this year, the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic organizing committee revealed its overall vision for the Olympic torch relay. Encompassed by the phrase, ‘Hope Lights Our Way’, organizers said the relay will strive to ‘bring the Japanese people together around messages of support, acceptance and encouragement of one another, while also reflecting the Olympic flame’s ability to promote peace and hope to the world.’

The Olympic torch relay will begin on March 26, 2020 in the Fukushima prefecture.

IOC Athletes Commission Releases Statement On RUSADA Missed Deadline

By Loretta Race on SwimSwam

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) Athletes Commission has released a statement concerning recent developments in the ongoing saga involving reinstatement of the Russian Anti-Doping Agency (RUSADA).

As a refresher, the RUSADA had been suspended since 2016, but was controversially reinstated in the fall of 2018. That move by WADA came with widespread outside criticism from many groups and individuals who felt WADA placed too few requirements on Russia to regain compliance.

WADA had set a December 31st deadline to meet the conditions, which included an on-site audit, or once again be found non-compliant. If non-compliant, RUSADA would face even tough sanctions with the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games looming.

However, as we reported last month, the WADA inspection team was denied access to raw data in the Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) during its inspection.

The United States Anti-Doping Agency’s president Travis Tygart reacted by calling entire process “a total joke and an embarrassment for WADA” and saying that WADA was “being played by the Russians.” The U.S., U.K. and at least 14 other anti-doping agencies have called on WADA to ban Russia.

The IOC Athletes Commission, headed by now-retired Olympic swimmer Kirsty Coventry, Sports Minister for Zimbabwe, released the following pertaining to its stance on these developments:

As members of the IOC Athletes’ Commission, we are extremely disappointed and concerned by the fact that RUSADA has missed the deadline of 31 December 2018 to hand over the LIMS data from the Moscow laboratory to WADA.

Over the past months, we supported the provisional reinstatement of RUSADA for three main reasons:

1. by provisionally reinstating RUSADA, Russian athletes could be tested more regularly and effectively,

2. should RUSADA miss the set deadline, stronger and more effective sanctions would be imposed on Russia, thanks to the new International Standard for Code Compliance by Signatories (ISCCS), and

3. the provisional reinstatement of RUSADA with a clear deadline provided us with a clear process and timeline to resolve a situation that has been ongoing since 2015.

In the past months, we as the IOC Athletes’ Commission asked athletes for their patience and promised that we will advocate for strong actions should Russia not meet the two final requirements.

Dimmi Che Occhialini Usi E Ti Dirò Chi Sei

By Giusy Cisale on SwimSwam

Il nuoto è uno sport che si pratica quasi nudi. Coperti solo da un costume, occhialini e cuffia possiamo comunque esprimere la nostra personalità.

Ognuno sceglie ciò che più lo rappresenta, oltre a ciò che ritiene più “comodo”.

Anche in qualcosa di piccolo come un paio di occhialini può racchiudersi l’espressione del proprio carattere.

Cosa dicono dunque i tuoi occhialini di te?

SVEDESI

  • Sembrano la scelta più semplice ed economica, ma indicano indipendenza, precisione, comodità. Sono stati adattati al millimetro al vostro viso, durano quasi una stagione e non perdete secondi importanti durante l’allenamento per sistemarli. Anche nella vita siete persone concentrate ma con uno spirito libero!

LENTI chiare trasparenti

  • Non hai timore nel mostrare il vero te. Hai fiducia negli altri ed ami vedere le cose in modo chiaro.

italian Winter Nationals – Campionati Italiani Open 2018 photo Giusy Cisale swimswam.com

OCCHIALI MASCHERA

  • Vuoi sentirti al sicuro sia in acqua che ella vita normale. Vuoi essere sicuro che negli occhialini, come nella vita normale, non entri nulla che possa distoglierti dal tuo obiettivo quotidiano.

LENTI A SPECCHIO

  • Avete l’stinto di primordiale di osservare la preda senza che lei lo sappia. Amate la concentrazione ed isolarvi prima di una scelta, o di una gara.

CINGHIE COLORATE, ETC.

  • In ultimo c’è chi va oltre l’occhialino colorato e lo abbellisce con cinghie e naselli. sono gli amanti del fashion a tutti i costi, quelli che vogliono distinguersi in un mondo dove sembrano tutti uguali.

Kiefer Sports

 

OCCHIALINI TRADIZIONALI

  • Allenamento e gara devono essere controllabili. Anche nella vita si è poco aperti a modifiche drastiche delle proprie abitudini. Si preferisce utilizzare ciò che già si conosce bene.

OLIMPIADI DI TOKYO 2020

Con l’inizio del nuovo anno possiamo ufficialmente dire che l’anno prossimo ci saranno le Olimpiadi.

Il comitato organizzatore è in fermento.

Vediamo allora quali sono le ultime novità sulle Olimpiadi di Tokyo del 2020.

Nel corso del 2018 vi abbiamo informato di tutti i preparativi, dalla costruzione della piscina fino ai sistemi di riconoscimento facciale.

Materiali di riciclaggio utilizzati per la Torcia Olimpica

Come vi avevamo anticipato, le medaglie sono state assemblate grazie ai materiali ottenuti con smartphone ed altri piccoli dispositivi.

Ora si aggiunge anche l’alluminio proveniente dagli alloggi temporanei costruiti a Fukushima in Giappone, una prefettura colpita dal terremoto, tsunami e disastro nucleare nel 2011.

Questi materiali verranno utilizzati per alimentare le torce olimpiche. Il messaggio che si vuole lanciare è quello delle ‘Olimpiadi di ricostruzione ‘.

Il Comitato Organizzatore dei Giochi Olimpici e Paralimpici ha annunciato che il messaggio che accompagnerà la staffetta della torcia olimpica sarà: “Hope Lights Our Way” –

LA SPERANZA ILLUMINI LA NOSTRA STRADA

E’ un messaggio di sostegno, accettazione e incoraggiamento reciproco.

La staffetta della torcia olimpica inizierà il 26 Marzo 2020 .’

La  staffetta della torcia olimpica inizierà il 26 Marzo 2020 nella prefettura di Fukushima.

TEMPI DI QUALIFICAZIONE OLIMPICA – NUOTO

L’ordine di priorità è stabilito come segue:

1. Tutti gli atleti con tempi di qualificazione olimpica (OQT / tempo “A”)
2. Atleti in staffetta
3. Universality Places

4. Atleti che hanno raggiunto un tempo di selezione olimpionica (ora OST / “B”)

I nuotatori potranno raggiungere il tempo di qualificazione in uno degli eventi approvati dalla FINA. Il calendario degli eventi sarà pubblicato il 28 febbraio 2019.

Inoltre, potranno qualificarsi un massimo di 16 squadre in ciascun evento di staffetta. Verranno selezionate le prime 12 squadre dei Campionati del Mondo 2019, mentre le restanti 4 saranno determinate in base ai tempi prodotti tra il 1 ° marzo 2019 e il 31 marzo 2020.

Di seguito uno schema esemplificativo.

Olimpiadi di Tokyo: Budget Invariato E Nessun Costo Per I Contribuenti

OLIMPIADI DI TOKYO 2020

Nel susseguirsi di notizie che riguardano le prossime Olimpiadi, molta attenzione viene data al budget per la realizzazione dell’intera manifestazione.

Quanto è cambiato il budget per la costruzione di impianti, infrastrutture, villaggio olimpico ecc. ?

Secondo quando dichiarato da Comitato Organizzatore i costi sono contenuti nel budget iniziale.

Budget invariato e nessun costo per i contribuenti

Gli sforzi di riduzione dei costi a quanto pare sono risultati proficui.

Il Comitato organizzatore dei Giochi Olimpici (COJO) afferma che il budget è in equilibrio e non ci sarà nessun costo per i contribuenti.

“Verrà tutto finanziato privatamente dal Comitato Olimpico Internazionale (CIO), sponsor, licenze e ricavi dei biglietti per US $ 5.6 miliardi di dollari con nessun peso per contribuenti”. (Astralasian Leisure Management)

I progetti di marketing hanno dunque coperto l’esubero di spese che riguardano i seguenti aumenti:

  • trasporti: tra 100 milioni di dollari a 300 milioni
  • costi operativi dei Giochi: 100 milioni l’anno per una previsione di 1 miliardo di dollari complessivi.

Toshiro Muto, capo dell’esecutivo di Tokyo 2020 ha dichiarato:

“Con meno di 600 giorni all’inizio dei Giochi, stiamo finalmente entrando in una fase di attuazione a tutti gli effetti. Molti aspetti dei Giochi sono diventati più dettagliati. Tokyo 2020 ha visto un aumento di spese in alcune nuove aree, ma ha ridotto con successo le spese in altri settori, con conseguente bilancio aggiornato e rimasto nella stessa della versione precedente”.

“C’è ancora un sacco di lavoro da fare per controllare le spese, ma con la collaborazione del CIO, Tokyo 2020 continuerà a fare il possibile per massimizzare i ricavi, contenere i costi e mantenere il suo bilancio entro 600 miliardi di Yen (US $ 5.39 miliardi) “.

Il Nuoto Può Renderti Un Genitore Migliore

$

By Giusy Cisale on SwimSwam

La settimana scorsa vi ho indicato gli atteggiamenti che possono farvi diventare il peggior genitore di sempre.

Per par condicio e soprattutto per rispecchiare la realtà nella sua completezza, è d’obbligo sottolineare che questo sport non è solo una grande scuola di vita per i nostri figli.

Come genitori riceviamo tanto dal nuoto, al pari di tutto ciò che offriamo noi ad esso.

Quali sono dunque le cose che il nuoto ci insegna rendendoci persone migliori?

  1. Disciplina ed organizzazione

abbiamo incastrato nella nostra agenda fitta di impegni il percorso giornaliero casa/lavoro/piscina. Dal Lunedì al Sabato non facciamo perdere nemmeno un allenamento a nostro figlio. Sappiamo quali saranno le domeniche in cui gareggeranno e nelle quali per noi non ci sarà riposo, ma una bella trasferta.

  1. Volontariato.

Facciamo un passo oltre la nostra zona di comfort e ci assumiamo nuove responsabilità per la squadra. Che sia dalla stampa delle magliette ad offrirsi come “taxi” speciale, il volontariato ci rende buoni cittadini e modelli da seguire per i nostri bambini.

  1. Meno è meglio.

Abbiamo imparato che la piscina è il luogo dove fare un passo indietro e lasciare che i nostri figli capiscano e facciano le proprie esperienze in autonomia.

  1. Pazienza.

Nuoto ci insegna ad essere paziente. Vi aspettiamo mentre vi allenate. Vi aspettiamo mentre trascorrete ore negli spogliatoi solo per farvi una doccia. Aspettiamo anche mezza giornata in tribuna per vedervi nuotare per qualche manciata di secondi.

  1. Sportività.

Il nuoto insegna a fare il tifo anche per gli altri nuotatori, ad essere felici per i successi della squadra. Questo è ciò che deve essere insegnato ai ragazzi.

  1. Umiltà.

Non importa quanto siamo orgogliosi dei nostri bambini, impariamo con il tempo che ci sarà sempre uno più veloce o più talentuoso. Ogni volta che andiamo alle gare ci rendiamo conto che ci sarà sempre un record battuto e che se anche nostro figlio risulta vincente, non è detto che pochi giorni dopo non si capovolga la situazione.

  1. Apprezzamento.

A volte rimango esterrefatta dalla capacità di mio figlio di essere sempre presente agli allenamenti e contemporaneamente di portare avanti gli studi. Lavora per raggiungere un obiettivo che forse arriverà tra anni, ma Sono impressionato con quanto duramente lavorano i miei figli. Essi lavorano per raggiungere gli obiettivi senza successo immediato. Mi chiedo se avrei potuto essere un atleta studente?

  1. Comunità.

C’è una comunità più forte del nuoto? Nuotatori, genitori, allenatori, sono tutte persone di famiglia!

By Nick Pecoraro on SwimSwam

Jim Wood, a former president of USA Swimming, died on January 4th. He was 68 years old. Wood leaves behind a big legacy in American swimming that spans decades, including as a member of 3 Olympic delegations.

Wood’s first national leadership position was the Chairman of USA Swimming’s Time Standard Committee, which he served from 1992-2004. Wood also served as Chairman of the USA Swimming Olympic International Operations Committee and was part of the USA Swimming delegation for the 1996, 2000, and 2004 Olympics.

Wood was the first swim coach to be elected as the President of USA Swimming in 2006. Wood also went on to serve as President of United States Aquatic Sports that same year. In 2011, Wood was inducted to the American Swimming Coaches Association (ASCA) Hall of Fame. In 2015, Wood was voted one of the “30 Most Influential People in Swimming Over the Past 30 Years”.

Most recently, Wood served as Chairman of the USA Swimming Steering Committee and was member of the USA Swimming Board of Directors and the USA Swimming Foundation. Along with his national legacy, Wood also leaves behind the Berkeley Aquatic Club in New Jersey. He was the head coach of BAC at the time of his death.

    • WOMEN: Wisconsin 146, Hawaii 97
    • MEN: Wisconsin 134, Hawaii 109

WOMEN’S MEET

Wisconsin has been training out in Hawaii, and had a dual with the Rainbow Warriors Friday evening.

Beata Nelson swam just one individual race, the 100 fly. Clocking a 52.80, she took home the win by over two full seconds. Nelson is one of just six women to have gone under 51 seconds in this event this season, with her 50.90 from the Texas Invite ranking her 5th in the country. Sprinter Emmy Sehmann earned two wins for the Badgers, hitting the wall at 23.53 in the 50 and 51.32 in the 100. Sehmann also anchored the Badgers to victory in the 200 medley relay.

Hawaii’s Phoebe Hines had a great meet, taking the 1000 free (10:08.41), then going right into the 200 free (1:50.85), and finally taking the 500 free (4:52.01).

JessicaUnicomb was on both of Wisconsin’s winning relays, and she added a win of her own in the 100 back (54.10), just edging out Hawaii’s Karolina Hajkova (54.12).

MEN’S MEET

Hawaii native but Wisconsin student MJ Mao picked up two wins for the Badgers. The versatile sprinter won races in two different strokes, going 48.37 in the 100 fly and then dropping 54.72 in the 100 breast.

Wisconsin also took control of the sprint frees. In the 50, Tyler Zelen touched first at 20.59, while Griffin Back was 45.68 in the 100 and Cam Tysoe was 1:39.20 in the 200.

Hawaii’s Metin Aydin was their go-to guy, winning both of his individual events and keeping things relatively close with the Badgers. Aydin clocked a 3:57.57 to take the 400 IM, and was 49.09 to win the 100 back.

Splits were unavailable from the results, but Wisconsin did just get by Hawaii in the opening 200 medley relay, 1:29.87 to 1:30.01.

Maxwell Reich, a USA Swimming Scholastic All-American from North Hampton, New Hampshire, has announced his intention to swim for Indiana University in the class of 2024. He will join fellow commit Tristan DeWitt in Bloomington in the fall of 2020.

Aryan Makhija, who hails from Khar West, Mumbai, India, joined the Auburn roster in January as a freshman. The class of 2022 also includes Brogan Davis, Brooks Merkle, Christian Sztolcman, Conner Pruitt, Matthew Yish, Stevos Baczek, and Thomas Pedroso.

Makhija specializes in distance freestyle. He attended Glenwood High, a boarding school in Durban, South Africa, where he trained under Graham Hill. Makjija and five other Indian swimmers were selected by Mumbai-based Jindal Steel to take part in the program.

Makhija is the Indian National Record-holder in the SCM 800 free and SCM 1500m free. He finished 16th in the 1500 free at the 2018 FINA World Championships (25m) in Hangzhou in December and his time of 15:01.44 broke the Indian National Record. His leadoff 800 during that race (8:01.68) also established a National Record.

Gary Taylor’s assessment: “Aryan will bring experience due to his international competitions to both the SEC and NCAA meets. He has been training in South Africa and he has some connections to current Auburn swimmers. He’s one of the top international distance specialists. He’s really excited to be in the United States training at a program and being at a university like Auburn. He’s going to provide some really good depth but also some top-end speed on the endurance end.”

Makhija swam in his first meet as a Tiger against Georgia Tech this weekend. He placed third in both the 1000 free (9:29.81) and 500 free (4:35.89), giving Auburn a 1-2-3 sweep of both events.

Top times:

  • 1500 SCM free – 15:01.44
  • 1500 LCM free – 15:59.50
  • 800 SCM free – 8:01.68
  • 800 LCM free – 8:13.19
  • 400 SCM free – 3:55.33
  • 400 LCM free – 3:59.86
