Chase Kalisz Moving to Arizona to Reunite With Bob Bowman in Pro Training Group<\/strong><\/p>\n

During his teenage years,\u00a0Chase Kalisz<\/strong> trained with coach\u00a0Bob Bowman<\/strong> at the North Baltimore Aquatic Club, and the two worked together again from 2015 to 2016 when Kalisz took an Olympic redshirt year from the University of Georgia to train in Tempe, Ariz., under Bowman’s guidance in preparation for the 2016 Olympics. Kalisz has worked with Bowman for brief stints since then, including at an altitude training camp this spring, but now he is moving west again to train full-time under Bowman.<\/p>\n

Kalisz finished his NCAA eligibility at Georgia in 2017, but he remained under\u00a0Jack Bauerle’s\u00a0<\/strong>tutelage through this year. Now, with Bauerle retired<\/a>, Kalisz will join a group of swimmers at Arizona State<\/a> that includes former Georgia teammates\u00a0Hali Flickinger<\/strong> and\u00a0Olivia Smoliga<\/strong> as well as the swimmer who this year took over the title of world’s best individual medley swimmer, Leon Marchand<\/strong>. Earlier Tuesday, three-time Olympic medalist\u00a0Regan Smith<\/strong> also announced plans to join Bowman’s group in Tempe<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Kalisz shared his announcement in an Instagram post Tuesday. “After 10 years it\u2019s finally time to say goodbye to Athens. Thank you to @jack.bauerle\u00a0&\u00a0@ugaswimdive for all the incredible memories and experiences! Excited to be getting back to the old age group coach ? Time to get to work! ??\u2600\ufe0f”<\/p>\n
