And the Canadian delegation showed that the future is as bright as the present, with prolific young talents on both sides of the competition.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>John Atkinson\u2019s message of uncertainty was, in its paradoxical way, consistent.<\/p>\n<p>Swimming Canada\u2019s High Performance Director was unsure what the Tokyo Olympics would bring. As one of the last major swimming nations to return to normal training schedules, the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic was significant. A thrice-postponed Olympic Trials, held in late June with a diminished field at close to the last possible minute, didn\u2019t offer much clarity. Atkinson\u2019s comments before departing for Tokyo were rooted in the trust of his athletes, but he stopped short of setting concrete targets, tempering expectations with the reality they faced.<\/p>\n<p>If uncertainty was the correct term before the Olympics began, surprise wasn\u2019t quite the right one by the end of the week at the Tokyo Aquatics Center.<\/p>\n<p>In most every department, Canadian swimmers exceeded expectations at the Tokyo Games, adjusted down for COVID-19 or not. The Canadians left with six medals, all on the women\u2019s side, including a gold for Maggie MacNeil in the 100 meter butterfly. They tallied four fourth-place finishes, all in Canadian-record times, which Atkinson views as tantamount to a medal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey just do what they need to do to regroup and refocus,\u201d Atkinson said. \u201cAnd the resilience they\u2019ve shown over the last 17 months of the pandemic is extraordinary and something I would commend everybody for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The iconic shock and elation in MacNeil\u2019s face at seeing the board after the 100 fly, having bested a field that included world record holder Sarah Sjostrom and eventual seven-time medalist Emma McKeon, perfectly encapsulates the Canadians\u2019 Olympics. It was a performance that MacNeil knew she could do, from her dominance in college at the University of Michigan to her 2019 world championship. But after having to abruptly switch training bases during the pandemic, there were still understandable reservations until that final stroke that she would be able to deliver her best at the pivotal moment.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>SUCCESS IN THE FACE OF ADVERSITY<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nEvery swimmer experienced their moments of adversity before the Games. Penny Oleksiak was out of the water for two extended stretches due to persistent back pain. Kylie Masse had to move cross-province to train at the High Performance Centre in Toronto when other pools were unavailable. Sydney Pickrem\u2019s move to HPC Toronto involved a hasty decamping from her base in College Station, Texas, before the border closed.<\/p>\n<p>Yet with those toils endured, the medals flowed to the Canadian women. Masse\u2014a leader in and out of the pool and, according to Coach Ben Titley, \u201cpossibly the greatest human being I\u2019ve ever coached\u201d\u2014briefly held the Olympic record in the 100 backstroke and set national records in both backstroke events on the way to a pair of silver medals (along with a medley relay bronze). Oleksiak delivered a gutsy performance in the 200 free to rally in the final 50 for bronze and set a Canadian record in fourth place in the 100. That training group in Toronto proved to be the physical and emotional core of the team, hastening the camaraderie that most nations struggle to assemble in the few weeks before the Games.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/issues\/2021\/swimming-world-magazine-october-2021-issue-pdf-only\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">To read more about Team Canada&#8217;s Tokyo performance and their prospects for Paris 2024,<br \/>\nClick here to download the full October issue of Swimming World Magazine, available now!<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/issues\/2021\/swimming-world-magazine-october-2021-issue-pdf-only\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"488452\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/?attachment_id=488452\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Swimming-World-October-2021-David-Popovici-New-Kid-On-The-Block-COVER.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 October 2021 &#8211; David Popovici &#8211; New Kid On The Block &#8211; COVER\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Swimming World October 2021 &#8211; David Popovici &#8211; New Kid On The Block &#8211; COVER&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Swimming-World-October-2021-David-Popovici-New-Kid-On-The-Block-COVER-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Swimming-World-October-2021-David-Popovici-New-Kid-On-The-Block-COVER-766x1024.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-488452 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Swimming-World-October-2021-David-Popovici-New-Kid-On-The-Block-COVER.jpg\" alt=\"Swimming World October 2021 - David Popovici - New Kid On The Block - COVER\" width=\"800\" height=\"1070\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Swimming-World-October-2021-David-Popovici-New-Kid-On-The-Block-COVER.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Swimming-World-October-2021-David-Popovici-New-Kid-On-The-Block-COVER-766x1024.jpg 766w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Swimming-World-October-2021-David-Popovici-New-Kid-On-The-Block-COVER-150x200.jpg 150w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Swimming-World-October-2021-David-Popovici-New-Kid-On-The-Block-COVER-300x401.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Swimming-World-October-2021-David-Popovici-New-Kid-On-The-Block-COVER-450x602.jpg 450w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Swimming-World-October-2021-David-Popovici-New-Kid-On-The-Block-COVER-673x900.jpg 673w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Swimming-World-October-2021-David-Popovici-New-Kid-On-The-Block-COVER-245x327.jpg 245w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Swimming-World-October-2021-David-Popovici-New-Kid-On-The-Block-COVER-533x713.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>[PHOTO BY GEORGIO SCALIA \/ DEEPBLUEMEDIA]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Get <em>Swimming World Magazine<\/em> and <em>Swimming World Biweekly<\/em> FREE When You<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/join\" 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\"><em>Become A Member of the International Swimming Hall of Fame<\/em><\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/product\/30-day-digital-membership-to-ishof-with-swimming-world-subscription-download-current-swimming-world-biweekly-and-technique\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New!
