ASU’s Leon Marchard sets 200 IM record at NCAA Championships, Pac-12 earns top 3 spots

[@beanchilada]

When rowdy starts screaming you know a fast swim is occurring

[@terrificleon]

speechless... Even if we already had a little idea of what was going to happen, I have the impression that nobody can really find the words to comment on Leon Marchand's races... just incredible...

[@reidaikman3134]

Ikr he’s the best

[@eagle77727]

Bien joué Léon🇫🇷

[@n19kolas63]

What is it going to take to get rowdy out of the booth. He has killed the hype of so many great swims by expecting records to be broken by more than feasible. Screaming "1:35! No!" when Marchand goes 1:36 or expecting Dressel to go 38 in the 1 free back in 2018. Just ruins the moment

[@lucasbailey8481]

exactly dude gets dissapointed when the american record isnt broken by 3+ seconds

[@jimbendtsen8841]

It is FAR past time for Gaines to retire. He has been there too long.

[@walkerscoral]

Lmao “No!”

[@nestorcollado2400]

Wowww, amazing.

[@brendanguillou7339]

Bravo Léon 👍

[@The_Rankinator]

The crazy part is he could 1:35 if his free split was faster

[@sylvainguinepain5624]

He goes pedal to the metal from the start. By the time the freestyle comes around he's exhausted. He did swim a 40.5s split in the 4x100y freestyle relay so it's not like his freestyle isn't great, it's simply that he's finishing races on the emergency battery.

@@spojce9 LOl thats crazy

[@gandigooglegandigoogle7202]

allez mon petit! on poussera avec toi à paris dans quelques mois !

[@khelsan]

légende.

[@MrKernkraft4000]

He left some in the tank on that free.

[@nfranka42]

going out 44.07 he was actually hanging on by a threat during freestyle. He will improve that last 50 comeback though

[@lucasbailey8481]

no way he said hes got some left in the tank when bro went out 44.07

[@fortitudo1409]

Rowdy was going nuts LMAOOOOO

[@frankwilson7500]

If you want to learn how to do IM at the top level go to ASU and get coached by Bob Bowman!

[@sylvainguinepain5624]

Marchand was already an olympic finalist at barely 19 in the 400 IM before he ever met Bowman.

[@snowpants2212]

Yeah and he’s come a long way since then

[@francinerolland3837]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@christopherroth1702]

Did his hand touch the wall at the 100?

[@sylvainguinepain5624]

Something had to touch in order for the timer to record it.

[@genroku7]

The high-tone MC guy is too noisy．Very annoying. Change him.

[@Q-bal]

lmao it's Rowdy Gaines homie. Literally an icon in the sport and one of the best parts of swimming commentary.

[@reidaikman3134]

What do u mean he’s the best
