Special Sets: Inside the Work of Jacob Wimberly Under Coach Coley Stickels<\/strong><\/p>\n

A North Carolina high school state champion in the 100 yard back as a freshman (48.98) and runner-up in the 200 free (1:40.62), Jacob Wimberly<\/strong> has done nothing but burnish his competitive r\u00e9sum\u00e9 since landing in Texas and teaming with renowned sprint coach Coley Stickels<\/strong>. As of October, Wimberly, now training at Texas Ford Aquatics, is tied with Daniel Diehl<\/strong> as the No. 1-ranked male recruit in the Class of 2024. He has committed to Texas A&M.<\/p>\n

An extremely versatile swimmer, his best USA Swimming times equate to three Olympic Trial, seven winter U.S. Open, two summer national, one winter and five junior qualifying times. His Trial cuts are in the 100 and 200 meter freestyles (49.79, 1:49.94) and 100 fly (53.52). At the July Speedo Junior Nationals, Wimberly recorded 10 personal bests, and placed fourth in the 100 free and fifth in the 100 fly in gaining his OT cuts.<\/p>\n

Internationally, he made significant contributions to two Team USA-winning relays at September\u2019s World Aquatics Junior Swimming Championships in Israel. Going second in the 4 x 200 free relay, he went 1:49.21, clocking the fastest split of all 32 swimmers. In the 4 x 100 medley, his 53.79 contributed to American gold. Individually, he placed 10th in the 50 fly (24.61) and 16th in the 100 fly (53.71).<\/p>\n

In his two seasons at Prosper High School (40 miles north of Dallas), Wimberly has been a seven-time NISCA All-American. As a sophomore, he placed first in the 100 yard fly (48.37), fifth in the 200 IM (1:48.65), and he was a part of a 1:25.04 200 free relay. As a junior, he was second in the 100 fly (47.04), fifth in the 50 free (20.35) and a part of a 3:04.98 400 free relay. His 44.36 100 free placed him in a tie for 28th in NISCA 100 free rankings.<\/p>\n

The pairing with Stickels and his sprint-oriented training has accelerated Wimberly\u2019s considerable skills. A multi-time USA national team coach, head coach at the University of Alabama, Canyons Aquatic Club (Santa Clarita, Calif.), and Phoenix Swim Club as well as associate coach at Indiana University, Stickels has a proven track record of putting athletes on national and international stages (think Abbey Weitzeil<\/strong>, Roland Schoeman<\/strong>, et al.). An added bonus to the pairing with Stickels is Wimberly\u2019s ability to train with the coach\u2019s nascent pro group.<\/p>\n

THE COACH\u2019S VIEW<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cJacob is a very driven athlete who comes to daily practice ready to lead by example. He is always willing to demonstrate a new drill or dryland exercise,\u201d says his club coach, Coley Stickels. \u201cHe is receptive to changing technique, tempo or race strategy, and he is extremely coachable and open to new perspectives. His steady improvements have been the result of his increase in power in the water and weight room, efficiency, durability\/athleticism and consistently being able to train at or near his capacity.<\/p>\n

\u201cJacob is not afraid to work hard, and he loves to compete, whether in the weight room, on an aerobic set or in a racing setting.\u00a0He has also benefited from having a group of pro athletes around him, constantly pushing him to a higher level,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

The following Workout #1<\/strong> was done on a Saturday and geared toward butterflyers and IMers with an emphasis on power and volume. \u201cThis particular practice has elements of power and DPS work with some altered positions when dolphin-kicking above and below water,\u201d says Stickels.<\/p>\n
