Cal\u2019s Ryan Hoffer<\/strong> embraces the rivalry and the heavyweight battle the Golden Bears are in with Texas.<\/p>\n

For every Cal punch so far, Texas has had a counter punch, leading to an extremely close meet heading into the final day, with the Bears trailing the Longhorns, 414-372.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is really fun. It lights a fire beneath us and gets us going. We expect these things of Texas. But we try to focus on ourselves and improving our seeds and how much better we can do. That has been our mentality \u2014\u00a0let\u2019s do everything in our power,\u201d Ryan Hoffer said.<\/p>\n

Hoffer so far has done everything in his power. He defended his title in the 50 freestyle and helped the Bears win the sprint relay on Thursday.\u00a0On Friday, he continued his stellar meet by winning the 100 butterfly<\/a> in 44.25. It was a huge moment for Cal in the middle of the showdown, where every point counts.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I am doing right now is for the team. That \u2018W\u2019 brings us one step closer and that makes me even more happy,\u201d Hoffer said.<\/p>\n

Hoffer was focused on the 50 free heading into the meet and it paid off as he became the second-fastest performer in history.\u00a0The swim might have stunned a lot of people, but not Hoffer \u2014\u00a0it is what he had been aiming toward for years.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is something I had been thinking about doing for a long time now. I guess going into that 50, I don\u2019t want to seem heavy-handed, but it is kind of what I was expecting. Seeing that times means a lot. I did what I needed to do and that is what I am so happy about,\u201d Hoffer said. \u201cMentality-wise it was a little different for me. This entire season I have been working on my front half, that first 25 off the start. I was trying to hit an 8-mid to the feet. Prelims come along and I go out 9.0. Over the last week, I haven\u2019t been able to get under 9 to the feet, which is usually a good marker for me to tell where I am at. But come to find out that my back-half speed was there and I was able to come back faster than I ever have. It wasn\u2019t what I was planning on, but it was what happened.\u201d<\/p>\n

That gave Hoffer momentum heading into Friday. He was the favorite in the 50 free, but not necessarily in the 100 fly \u2014\u00a0at least before Friday\u2019s prelims. He put together the ninth-fastest time in history making him the fifth-fastest performer at 44.24. It got him the top seed and he hung on and claimed his second NCAA title of the meet.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was pretty excited about (the fly) because I was feeling pretty achy this morning after that triple, in terms of races, so coming in a little groggy and achy is something I expected, but I was able to push through that and that got me more excited because I knew I had more,\u201d Ryan Hoffer said. \u201cI definitely learned how to manage (the nerves). I almost look forward to the nerves because I feel like it gives me that extra pop where I need something more. It is that fuzzy feeling going into the water. It is what makes the race, the race. It makes a good race feel that much better. Being able to come out on top, I mean there are a lot of nerves there \u2026 I am trying to defend my title (in the 50). Being able to succeed and get over those nerves is a big step forward for our swimming.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hoffer knows it is not just victories that bring points. He has watched his teammates pick up points in little chunks, too, which add up.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a big swing for us and we can really take those small points and they play into the bigger picture,\u201d Hoffer said. \u201cMy sophomore year when we won, we had Carson Sand<\/strong> in the 200 breast and he was able to squeeze into that B final, which was unexpected. It really got us excited about that kind of swim and that really helped us moving forward. It is momentum, but really the consistent process of how we are approaching the meet.\u201d<\/p>\n

The important thing for the Golden Bears is that, big points or small points, they are all feeding off of each other\u2019s races and will need to do that in a big way on Saturday morning.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe really do miss our fans getting to witness all of that. But this is not out of the norm for us. We have been handling situations like this all year. We haven\u2019t had any spectators at any of our dual meets, we have been basically shut ins trying to do what we can to perform in the water,\u201d Ryan Hoffer said. We wish they were there, but we don\u2019t need it. We thrive off of our team\u2019s performances. Having that kind of flexibility in this kind of environment makes us dangerous.\u201d<\/p>\n

It will take a dangerous performance in the prelims for the Golden Bears to repeat as NCAA champions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
