Photo Courtesy: Mine Kasapoglu\/ISL<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cWhenever I\u2019m an anchor on a relay, I tend to scope the field,\u201d Ky-lee Perry told <em>Swimming World<\/em>. \u201cI take into account where we are and focus on what I can do to either maintain the place we are in or move up in placement. For this specific relay, I didn\u2019t want to put too much pressure on myself, so I took a deep breath and enjoyed the feeling of raving again. After watching all of my teammates race in front of me, it was finally my turn. Watching it unfold and being able to bring my team home was such an amazing feeling.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Perry knew she was going to be a relay specialist in her ISL debut but wasn\u2019t sure where she would be in either of the relays, making her anchoring experience all the more special.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGoing into the first match of the season, I knew I was going to be a relay-only person, due to the fact that it was my first ISL meet and I didn\u2019t know what to expect structure wise,\u201d she said. \u201cThe meet is pretty fast-paced, so instead of overwhelming me with individual and relay events, they wanted me to get some exposure through the relays. When they approached me about the mixed relay, I told them that I was ready to go and I was feeling fast. They had so much faith in me that they chose to anchor me. I was so honored to be a part of that relay.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Perry felt at home with a team in the Trident&#8217;s bright red, just like her college days at NC State. There were other similarities Perry picked up on as well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne thing I knew and loved about DC Trident is that they always bring the intensity, like NC State Swim &amp; Dive team,\u201d Ky-lee Perry said. \u201cThe atmosphere was insane both days of the meet. No matter who you were or what events you were doing, we all came together to cheer each other on. I remember stepping up on the blocks and hearing them chant my name. I knew what I had to do and I couldn\u2019t wait for the moment when I could dive in and make my team proud.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_450328\" style=\"width: 494px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-450328\" data-attachment-id=\"450328\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/ky-lee-perry-makes-most-of-dc-trident-relay-role-with-epic-anchor-swim-in-isl-debut\/dc-trident-isl-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/dc-trident-isl-scaled-e1603331742982.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1100,733\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;ILCE-9&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1603050111&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;2500&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0004&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"dc-trident-isl\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;dc-trident-isl&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Mine Kasapoglu\/ISL&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/dc-trident-isl-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/dc-trident-isl-1024x683.jpg\" class=\" wp-image-450328\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/dc-trident-isl-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"dc-trident-isl\" width=\"484\" height=\"346\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-450328\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">DC Trident during Ky-lee Perry&#8217;s swim.

The pandemic continued to keep Perry from her training routine in the water, making everything a little uncertain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeing a professional athlete during a pandemic has been challenging for many different reasons. When you\u2019re an athlete training for any specific event, whether that be a meet or game, you need consistency. You need to have a set schedule for when you\u2019ll be training (practicing and lifting) or else you\u2019ll get out of shape,\u201d Perry said. \u201cAt the beginning of the pandemic, all facilities were closed, so many people around the world weren\u2019t able to train for months. Once places started opening up, it was still hard to have a consistent schedule where you\u2019d be able to build and maintain your workouts. After months out of the pool, I was lucky enough to join Wolfpack Elite. I got to work one on one with my coach, <strong>Braden Holloway<\/strong>, to figure out where I needed to start and how I would build back up to where I used to be. It was a long few months, but I was able to train consistently and for that I was thankful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then it was just a waiting game to see when she would race again and if the ISL season would happen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think a lot of us thought that the ISL League wouldn\u2019t happen this year due to safety and health reasons during the pandemic, but once everything was finalized and we were all packing our bags, it finally became real that we would have a chance to race again,\u201d Ky-lee Perry said. \u201cI can\u2019t speak for everyone else, but I know I was a little nervous to see how it would all play out. However, the ISL has been doing an amazing job keeping us all safe and healthy in the bubble.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy first professional meet, under these circumstances, has been a great experience so far and I can\u2019t wait to continue this journey.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Ky-lee Perry walked on the pool deck for her International Swimming debut, just being there was a huge accomplishment.
