Recently, Pieroni made a return to swimming at the 2023 Indy Spring Cup at the IU Natatorium in downtown Indianapolis.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Pieroni re-joined many familiar faces in Ray Looze\u2019s post-grad group in Bloomington where Pieroni swam for more than half a decade. This was the first-time racing for the 27-year-old since the FINA World Cup in Doha back in the fall of October 2021.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Pieroni had a busy 2021 including the Olympic Games, ISL Season Three, and all three stops of the FINA Swimming World Cup. After the long hiatus, Pieroni returned to competition in the Hoosier state.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In his first meet back Pieroni raced both the 50m and 100m freestyles, placing third in both events.

A native of Northern Indiana, Pieroni cited enjoying the sport and giving back to the community in regard to his return. It would be a special moment for the multi-time Olympian to officially close out his career at an Olympic Trials that will take place down the road from where he was a multi-time state champion.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Veterans Re-Emerge Ahead of the 2023 U.S. World Championships Trials Although USA Swimming is flooded with young talent, veterans always seem to emerge in the biggest moments.
