This week\u2019s SEC Championships at Auburn University will be a long distance from the Great White North. But when the meet shifts to breaststroke, there will be a definite Canadian flair to proceedings.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s an odd phenomenon that has landed so many Canadian breaststrokers in the SEC, but one that creates a familiar dynamic on deck.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s kind of nice to have someone from home, even if you don\u2019t necessarily know them, you know of them,\u201d said Olivia Paskulin<\/strong>, a senior at LSU. \u201cSo it\u2019s kind of like a bond that we have. It\u2019s a weird friendship. Some girls I don\u2019t know personally but they\u2019ll come up to me after a race and say, \u2018hey good job,\u2019 because we knew each other from age-group nationals in 2016 or something like that, or we raced against each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

The SEC has been a recent haven for Canadians, particularly in breaststroke. At the 2019 championships<\/a>, Georgia\u2019s Sofia Carnevale<\/strong> finished third in the 100 breast with Paskulin eighth. Carnevale also made the B final of the 200 breast, taking 13th.<\/p>\n

That event\u2019s A final featured Sydney Pickrem<\/strong> of Texas A&M taking home second place with Tennessee\u2019s Tess Cieplucha<\/strong> in seventh.<\/p>\n

Pickrem has graduated, but the Canadian contingent remains strong for this year’s championships<\/a>. Carnevale is the fourth seed in the 100 breast this year with Paskulin 24th. Both hold NCAA B cuts. In the 200 breast, Cieplucha (seventh seed) and Carnevale (10th) figure to be finals contenders.<\/p>\n

A new face in the mix is Missouri freshman Katrina Brathwaite,<\/strong> seeded 15th in the 100 and 13th in the 200 with B cuts. Brathwaite and Paskulin both hail from Quebec and trained at Pointe-Claire Swim Club. Though several years separate them, Paskulin has watched Brathwaite grow as a swimmer.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s a phenomenal swimmer, very versatile, swims literally every single stroke, is great in the IM,\u201d Paskulin said. \u201cShe\u2019s so strong in breaststroke, too. It makes me really excited to have someone from my club team that I\u2019ve watched basically grow up \u2013 I\u2019ve known her since she was 12 years old \u2013 so it\u2019s really wonderful to see her and I\u2019m super excited to see what she\u2019s going to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Those connections inform Paskulin\u2019s theory of how so many Canadians headed south to swim. The lure of the SEC\u2019s many elite programs is obvious. But news of acquaintances\u2019 successes far from home cements the pipeline. Carnevale, for instance, is one of three Etobicoke Swim Club alums at Georgia<\/a>, joining fellow Ontario natives Meryn McCann<\/strong> and Olivia Anderson<\/strong> there after two seasons at UNLV.<\/p>\n

Paskulin cites James Guest<\/strong>, a Pointe-Claire alum who graduated from Georgia in 2019 as one of the Bulldogs\u2019 fastest ever breaststrokers, as one she looked to in deciding where to continue her career.<\/p>\n

\u201cSomething about me checking the results and making a comparison to the other schools and being like, yes this is what I want to do, and it\u2019s led the way for other swimmers that are following along from their club teams,\u201d she said. \u201cAlso when we come back to nationals, you always hear through the grapevine how everyone is doing, even if you don\u2019t necessarily know them, so all of the coaches kind of know that the SEC is a really great place to be, which I can attest to that.\u201d<\/p>\n

The connection is heightened in an Olympic year, since the Canadians could end up competing against each other three times in six weeks \u2013 at SECs, NCAAs, then Canadian Olympic Trials in late March.<\/p>\n

Last year\u2019s World Championships trials<\/a> showed the SEC footprint. The 200 was won by Pickrem. Cieplucha was eighth, Brathwaite was 11th and Carnevale was 15th. (Another American collegian, Florida State\u2019s Nina Kucheran,<\/strong> was sixth as well as fifth in the 100.) In the 100, Carnevale took eighth with Brathwaite 14th.<\/p>\n

Paskulin feels it more acutely than most, with Canadian Trials due to be the last meet of her career. Her training is pointed toward SECs, with a decent chance of getting to NCAAs in the 100.<\/p>\n

Even before she gets to Toronto at the end of March, she\u2019ll be surrounded by familiar faces.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll be excited to move on but sad that it\u2019s over,\u201d the marketing major said. \u201cBut I\u2019ll be able to spend it with American swimmers, my LSU family, at NCAAs if that\u2019s in the books, with all the fastest of the entire country and then Canadian Trials where all the fastest people in Canada come. It\u2019s such a great opportunity and how it lined up with those three meets back to back.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
