Men's 100m Freestyle - Final
The United States has its men's 4x100m freestyle relay team. For the most part, it’s a familiar one.
Caeleb Dressel will lead it, and he will also compete as a gold medal favorite in the individual event in Tokyo after winning Thursday’s final in 47.39 – the fastest time ever swam on U.S. soil. After the race, he motioned for the crowd to make a little noise and Omaha obliged, saluting the best male swimmer in the world.
Dressel will be joined in Tokyo by former Auburn Tiger Zach Apple in both the 100 free and on the 4x100 free relay team. The pair won gold for the U.S. in the relay at the 2019 World Championships in South Korea.
Blake Pieroni, also a member of that team, will reunite with Dressel and Apple on the Tokyo relay team based on his third-place finish. LSU’s Brooks Curry is the newcomer of the group, a fact not lost on Dressel.
“It’s a great four. I gotta get to know this guy,” Dressel said patting Curry on the shoulder. “We got a newbie on the team, so I’m excited to work with these boys."
Fifth and sixth place finishers Bowe Becker and 2016 Olympian Ryan Held are also candidates to make the team as relay prelim swimmers.
