Special Sets: Sea Otters’ Daniel Diehl – Definitely Driven<\/span><\/h1>\n
By Michael J. Stott<\/span><\/p>\n
Coach Brian Dowling of the Cumberland YMCA (Maryland) shares some sample sets that he\u2019s given to rising age group swimmer Daniel Diehl, who is ranked by Collegeswimming.com as Maryland\u2019s\u2014and the nation\u2019s\u2014top-ranked male swimmer in the Class of 2024.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Variously attributed to Walt Whitman, Will Rogers and Dizzy Dean, the phrase, \u201cIf you done it, it ain\u2019t bragging,\u201d connotes achievement.
\nCumberland YMCA Sea Otter swimmer Daniel Diehl has earned the right to tout his achievements. In recent months, the strapping 15-year-old has decimated his competition and has either broken or knocked on the door of several national age group records.<\/p>\n
As of November, he remains the 13-14 NAG record holder in the 100 yard back (47.44), and he just missed Michael Andrew\u2019s 100 free mark (43.90) by a tenth of a second. Currently, he has 10 U.S. Open winter cuts along with a host of Winter Junior times. This summer, he was the youngest male competitor at Wave II Olympic Trials, where he clocked 55.42 in the 100 meter back (31st out of 61 swimmers) and 23.24 in the 50 free (58\/64). Those times qualified him for the National Junior Team and to participate in the October FINA Swimming World Cup meets in Germany and Hungary. Later in October, Diehl was officially named to the 2021-22 National Junior Team.<\/p>\n
As the youngest male on the U.S. squad (and third youngest athlete on the team), he notched seven top 10 individual finishes, including five top 5\u2019s\u2014all in the backsrokes. In the 50 back, he recorded two fifths (24.24, 24.19), third (52.57) and fourth (51.67) in the 100 and fifth in the 200 (1:54.11). On the 4 x 50 mixed free relay, Diehl\u2019s 22.45 leadoff helped the U.S. team to a first-place finish.<\/p>\n
Diehl was 11 when coach Brian Dowling noticed the youngster had a very efficient stroke. Today Dowling continues to guide and manage Diehl\u2019s training in a unique environment. That\u2019s because the Cumberland team, which only became an official USA Swimming team on Sept. 1, numbers just 25 to 30 swimmers, half of whom are 8-and-unders. The Sea Otter \u201cadvanced\u201d team is comprised of five athletes.<\/p>\n
To say that Diehl is dedicated would be a massive understatement, notes Dowling: \u201cDan is here every single day; he does not miss. His attitude is positive, enthusiastic and inspiring, his demeanor calm and cool. He knows our sport inside and out and everyone\u2019s names, dates, times and stats. He knows where he ranks, what times he wants to beat and who has done them.<\/p>\n
\u201cDan is a coach\u2019s best listener and does not complain come set time. He takes constructive criticism very well and uses video to correct insufficiencies when we find them. Dan\u2019s competitive drive is what separates him from other swimmers. He is extremely goal-oriented with numbers, places and times.<\/p>\n
\u201cMotivated? Dan is here doing workouts essentially by himself. He lifts free weights for an hour on Friday evenings and Sundays, and performs core and dryland exercises every day for about 30 minutes. His resistance training includes GMX, bungee cords, drag sox, ankle weights, stretch tubing, fins and pull buoys,\u201d says Dowling.<\/p>\n
