By Katie Lively, Swimming World College Intern<\/em><\/p>\n

After finishing seventh in the 200 back at the 2012 U.S. Olympic Trials, Jacob Pebley<\/strong><\/a> moved up to second this year to clench a spot on his first Olympic team.<\/p>\n

While Pebley is a relative newcomer to the ranks of the national elite, he\u2019s been making an impression on his coaches and teammates for years. He\u2019s been swimming competitively since age 6, starting with Albany Aquatic Association and later moving to Corvallis Aquatic Team at age 12.<\/p>\n

Here are a few fun facts about Pebley from those who know him best:<\/p>\n

1. He has the face of a puppy\u2014no matter how he\u2019s feeling.<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Longtime teammate Logan Storie<\/strong> said that growing up, Pebley \u201calways was like a sad, droopy dog; like a bloodhound or something. Whether he was happy, sad, tired, it was always hard to tell how he was feeling.\u201d<\/p>\n

Storie said Pebley didn\u2019t show a lot of emotion growing up, which made him hard to read. His innocent puppy look doubles as a great poker face to wear before unleashing in the pool.<\/p>\n

2. He may seem emotionless, but he has all sorts of inspiring things to say.<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

CAT teammate Brandon Shreeve<\/strong>\u00a0recollects one of Pebley\u2019s more motivational quotes:\u00a0\u201cGoing slow slows you down.\u201d No truer words have ever been spoken…<\/p>\n

3. Outside the pool, he loves to play basketball\u2014and he\u2019s a pro at injuring himself.<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Pebley, his father, and his brother all enjoy basketball. Pebley often liked to play on the weekends\u2014pretty aggressively, as CAT Coach Rick Guenther<\/strong> remembered. He frequently injured himself on the court, often spraining his ankle at some\u00a0inopportune times of the season.<\/p>\n

Guenther and Shreeve both recalled one poorly-timed Pebley injury. He blew out his ankle right before a Grand Prix meet in 2012 and was not able to travel to the meet.\u00a0\u201cIt did not go over well,\u201d Guenther said.\u00a0Shreeve said Pebley ended up injured more often than anyone else on the team.\u00a0\u201cHe had a hypersensitivity to gravity,\u201d Shreeve said.<\/p>\n

4. When he\u2019s healthy, it\u2019s hard to have an advantage over him at practice.<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

One day at practice, Guenther had his team do a 3000 for time. Pebley swam it all backstroke with paddles while everyone else did freestyle.\u00a0He lapped everyone at least once, some twice.\u00a0\u201cThat was a pretty common thing he would do,\u201d Shreeve said.\u00a0Guenther said Pebley is the happiest swimmer– utterly dedicated to training and racing.<\/p>\n

5. While he has an inner confidence, he is also very humble.<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Guenther calls Pebley “the most humble swimmer in the world.”\u00a0People at his high school had no idea he was a world-ranked athlete. Guenther and Pebley parted ways after Pebley\u2019s 2012 US Open 200 back victory. Pebley shipped off to attend college at Cal-Berkeley and Guenther returned home to Oregon. Pebley gave Guenther his first place medal as a parting gift.\u00a0Guenther\u2019s sons, ages 6 and 9, have kept it on their shelf ever since.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo many coaches and athletes back him with amazing passion,\u201d Guenther said.\u00a0Guenther recalls Pebley giving his teammates high fives after every set. “It\u00a0often drove me crazy, but it was great team building.\u201d<\/p>\n

6. Despite being humble, he likes to celebrate the important achievements with his friends.<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Shreeve once stopped by\u00a0Pebley\u2019s house and Pebley really wanted to show off his latest and greatest feat. So he took out his GameBoy.\u00a0Pebley\u2019s friend had helped him beat one of the first Pokemon games earlier that day. Thrilled to have beaten the game, he needed to show Shreeve the evidence that he had made it to the end.<\/p>\n

Was this a childhood memory? No, of course not, Shreeve said. Pebley was 18 at the time.\u00a0\u201cHe may be an adult, but he\u2019s really still a kid at heart,\u201d Shreeve said.<\/p>\n

We look forward to watching Pebley race his kiddish heart out in Rio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
