How They Train\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Maddie Kauahi<\/span><\/h1>\n

Well into her senior season, 5-8 sprint freestyler Madison Kauahi is an 11-time NCAA All-American. In 2018, she\u00a0was named the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) Swimmer of the Year. Her individual wins in the 50 and 100 yard freestyles (23.30, 50.82) and anchoring four winning relays helped propel Pomona-Pitzer to its second conference title in three years.<\/p>\n

Says her coach, Jean-Paul Gowdy,<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMaddie is the anchor for our team. She keeps us steady and allows her teammates to compete with a little more confidence. She\u2019s been the anchor to every important women\u2019s relay since the fall of her freshman year. She\u2019ll tell you she gets more nervous than anyone. I try to believe that, but she always flips a switch when the race begins, and is unflappable under pressure.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

KAUAHI SET<\/span><\/strong>
\n\u201cOne of her favorite sets\u2014and best\u2014is 10 x 25s free on 1:00. I\u2019ve seen her hold 11.8 or 9 for the entire set,\u201d says Gowdy. \u201cShe\u2019ll also go 10 x 100s on 1:30 and hold 1:01s and keep up with all our distance and mid-distance women. What she does best, though, as a sprinter is consistently hit her target tempos in practice, whether at the beginning or end of a long day, before or after a lift.\u201d<\/p>\n
