And his underwater dolphin kicks\u2014more than half of a short course 100 back\u2014are among the most powerful in the world.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, it\u2019s not like Dressel is the best technical breaststroker out there, and he\u2019s the fastest in history in the 100-yard event because he gets huge distance off his start, turns and pullouts\u2014where he takes full advantage of the one dolphin kick allowed off each wall.<\/p>\n<p>So could he use those same strengths on the walls to break the 100 back record, the 43.49 set by Dressel\u2019s former Bolles teammate <strong>Ryan<\/strong> <strong>Murphy<\/strong> in 2016, months before he won three Olympic gold medals?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>\u201cNah, Ryan\u2019s got that one,\u201d Dressel said. \u201cI don\u2019t like being on my back. It makes me panic.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Regardless, with his collegiate career quickly winding own, Dressel has no realistic opportunity to go after the 100 back record, and in the end, a non-backstroker breaking into the exclusive 43-second club would be absolutely shocking.<\/p>\n<p>That said, if Dressel had the opportunity to swim the 100 back at NCAAs, would a 44-second clocking or even an NCAA title against a field absent Murphy be all that crazy?<\/p>\n<p>At this point, maybe Dressel is spoiling us. Going into that 100 breast final, many on deck in College Station expected him to break Cordes\u2019 record, and Dressel admitted to being a little bit disappointed that he didn\u2019t become the first man to crack the 50-second barrier in the event.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>\u201cI would like to have been a little bit faster,\u201d he said. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t the best swim I\u2019ve ever had. I think I was a little scrambled the whole race. Honestly, I thought my relay swim was better. My time wasn\u2019t, but technically I think the relay swim was better. Always room for improvement, and you\u2019ve got to learn from every swim.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Remember, this is his fifth-best event, and he swam the fastest time ever.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also short course, a medium of swimming which will no longer matter for Dressel after he completes his NCAA career next month. As he knows, Dressel will be judged by the rest of the world outside the NCAA swimming bubble by what he achieves in long course. So far, he has passed his sprint freestyle and butterfly tests with flying colors.<\/p>\n<p>Can he translate his successes in IM and in breaststroke to long course? The answer to that question will come soon enough. For now, just appreciate the chance to enjoy his short course greatness.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Video Interview with Caeleb Dressel:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"oembed-wrap\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Caeleb Dressel, Florida, 100 breast at SEC championships\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wtfgNdRKe8A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By David Rieder.
