Pioneers Of Pro-Team Swimming<\/h3>\n

Ian Finnerty<\/strong> is looking forward to being part of the DC Trident in the new International Swimming League.<\/p>\n

While most professional swimmers are looking forward to the racing the new league will bring, the recent Indiana graduate has even more to look forward to.<\/p>\n

Finnerty is currently working on his masters at Indiana in Athletic Administration and Sports Management, hoping to enter the athletic world from another side after he is done competing.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has been interesting to see ISL as a new sports entity,\u201d Finnerty told Swimming World<\/em>. \u201cIt has a lot to do with my major. It has been cool to watch.\u201d<\/p>\n

Having someone like Kaitlin Sandeno<\/strong><\/a> as his general manager, who continued on in the sport after her competitive career was over is also an added boost for Finnerty.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would love to do more on the other side of it after I was done swimming,\u201d he said. \u201cI have talked with Kaitlin Sandeno about that already. That is what I want to do when I am done. It will be nice to take the experience on this side of things and take that to the business side.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of course, Finnerty isn’t ready to rush into that side. He is very comfortable in the competitive part of the sport and looking forward to his first season as a professional.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI think it is really great. They have taken a giant leap into it with meets all over the world. I am excited to see how the meets flow \u2014 should be interesting,\u201d he said. \u201cIt is going to be nice to race short-course meters. I haven\u2019t really gotten to do that. It is going to be a lot like the college training cycle with mid-season meets.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Finnerty proved he can dominate in short course, breaking the NCAA record in the breaststroke as the first man under 50 seconds \u2014 then defending his title in 2019<\/a>. But what Finnerty is looking forward to the most is getting to race some of the fastest swimmers from around the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me, I haven\u2019t had too much international experience since World University Games<\/a>,\u201d Ian Finnerty said. \u201cSo getting to race some of the best people in the world is going to be very beneficial for me. I am looking forward to that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moving into an Olympic year, Finnerty wants to take every opportunity to tighten up his races so everything is in place at trials.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a good chance to tighten up starts and turns because they are going to be so much more important,\u201d he said. \u201cI am going to try to bring a little more power into my long course race and this will be big for that.\u201d<\/p>\n

While he isn’t sure what to expect, Finnerty has already put together some goals for himself in the ISL<\/a>, especially if the DC Trident make the championship meet in December.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really hope that my yards experience carries over to meters,\u201d Ian Finnerty said. \u201cIf we make the championship, I would love to break the American record and get as close to the world record as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

That would be a stellar way to finish the first ISL season, and give Finnerty plenty of momentum heading into 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
