Good interview and good kid. I noticed on the stream before his final in the 4IM, that he shook the hand of the timer and it looked like he said thanks!
What a well spoken gentleman!
They buried the lede! At the end he says he wants to return to Cal and compete another year!
One more year! Rally your class and let’s get this done!
