That approach has fueled his impressive return to the pool.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">When Max McHugh arrived at the University of Minnesota, he was following older brother, Conner, who had previously been an All-American for the Golden Gophers. Very quickly, McHugh found himself in a situation where he could thrive in the pool.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Between his first Big Ten and NCAA Championships, McHugh dropped more than a second in the 100 yard breast to finish third nationally behind two seniors, his 50.30 making him the fourth-fastest performer in history. In the 200 breast, he swam a 1:49.41, dropping four seconds from his best time in becoming the sixth-fastest performer ever and finishing second behind another senior, Andrew Seliskar.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cI really think that coming in with the perspective of having nothing to lose\u2014no expectations in the first year\u2014just really helped me,\u201d McHugh said. \u201cI picked Minnesota partially because my brother was there before me. Just having him there was so helpful right away. If I ever had any questions, I could go to him. I attribute a lot of my success last year to him and just helping me out with everything.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In short, he was the obvious candidate to emerge as the nation\u2019s top breaststroker in Year 2.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But then, in late July, McHugh\u2019s situation became a lot more complicated than just being a swimmer working toward further improvement. McHugh and Golden Gopher teammate Nick Saulnier were caught in a drive-by shooting in Minneapolis, a simple situation where the two had been in the wrong place at the wrong time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">One bullet hit McHugh, entering through his lower knee and exiting at the bottom of his quad. While he was otherwise unharmed, swimming suddenly took a backseat to two recovery processes, beginning with his physical recovery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cI was very hesitant to start doing anything at first. I started on land for a couple weeks and then really gradually, very slowly and gradually, brought the yardage up in the pool. I started at maybe one practice a week and then up to two the next week,\u201d McHugh said. \u201cJust was careful with it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As he recovered, the lengthy recovery process wore on McHugh, particularly given that he had no control over how quickly he could return to normal swimming and normal life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cPTSD was a huge thing. I lost a lot of sleep over it. It was a combination of a lot of things that made everyday things just a little more difficult,\u201d he said. \u201cCoach Kelly Kramer just kept ensuring me that in the long run, it\u2019s going to help me just grow up a little bit quicker than everyone. Swimming, at that point, didn\u2019t really matter. He just kept on ensuring me that, in the long run, we\u2019re going to look back on it, and it\u2019s going to be a huge growing point in my life.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>To read the full story of how Max got back in the water and pressed on with training,\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Check out the February issue of Swimming World Magazine, available now!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/issues\/2020\/swimming-world-magazine-february-2020-issue-pdf-only\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"413248\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/?attachment_id=413248\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"800,1070\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Swimming World February 2020 Cover &#8211; Ranomi Kromowidjojo\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Swimming World February 2020 Cover &#8211; Ranomi Kromowidjojo&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-766x1024.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-413248 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo.jpg\" alt=\"Swimming World February 2020 Cover - Ranomi Kromowidjojo\" width=\"800\" height=\"1070\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-766x1024.jpg 766w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-150x201.jpg 150w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-300x401.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-450x602.jpg 450w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-673x900.jpg 673w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-374x500.jpg 374w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-245x327.jpg 245w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Swimming-World-February-2020-Cover-Ranomi-Kromowidjojo-533x713.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Get <em>Swimming World Magazine<\/em> and <em>Swimming World Biweekly<\/em> FREE When You<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/product-category\/ishof-membership\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/product-category\/ishof-membership\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1522345712821000&amp;usg=AFQjCNGfwbLD2OaI21g28efcR0DZZlQSOQ\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Become A Member of the International Swimming Hall of Fame<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Want More?
