    Rowdy Gaines(Pdf)

    Profile: Member of the 1980 Olympic Swim Team that boycotted the Olympics held in Moscow, then came back to win three gold medals in the 1984 Olympic Games in the 100m free, the 400m free relay and the 400m medley relay. Rowdy Gaines life is one of inspiration and courage. Gaines, born in Winter Haven, Florida, didn't start swimming until the age of 17. He tried other sports as youngster but was either to short, to slow, or not coordinated enough. As he recalls, "I wanted to play football but was so intimidated by the size of the other players." A shy boy growing up, Gaines found the solitude of swimming laps to be just what the doctor ordered. But his shyness quickly dissipated with his new found swimming success. After two years of rapid improvement as a high school swimmer, he was offered a scholarship to swim for Auburn University and under legendary coach Richard Quick. If it hadn't been for the 1980 Olympic boycott, Gaines might very well be one of America's most famous Olympians. He was favored to win 4 Olympic Gold Medals in 1980. He had broken 11 World Records. But as he says today, while disappointed by the decision to boycott, he supported President Carter and the U.S.A 100%. With every set back in his life, Gaines has persevered. He graduated from Auburn in 1981 and thought his swimming career was over. Professional swimming didn't exist at that time. He left the water for nearly a year, worked in his dad's gas station, and went through post-collegiate depression thinking he'd missed his dream to swim in the Olympics.

    SWIMMER’S NEWSLETTER FOR PRINCETON TIGER AQUATICS CLUB Tigers are Back in the Pool! by: Aditi Pavuluri It’s been a strange past few months for swimmers across the country, and one of the few times in history where there have been no competitions or practice taking place. The Olympics were postponed for the first time ever, and competitive swimmers across the globe are wondering when they can start competing again. As of two weeks ago, swimmers have taken to the pool for the first time in months. To pass the time, they’ve been working out over Zoom, and doing as much work as they could while still socially distanced. By working on technique, starts, turns, and speed, the Tigers have been trying to get in as much swimming as they can to make up for lost time. It will be a fresh start for us, and a way to start using muscles that haven’t been awoken in months. And though we’ve been staying in shape, we might not necessarily have been staying in swimming shape. Getting back into the pool is something that every swimmer is having to experience, and know that we’re in this together. So right now is the perfect time to improve on something that you’ve been holding off on during competition season. Our perspective might have to change from “getting back to where we came from” to “how far we can go”. Take advantage of this new and unusual time to better yourself as a swimmer. Go Tigers!

You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.

    U.S. Olympic Team Trials - Swimming Friday, June 11, 2021 Omaha, Nebraska, USA CHI Health Center Dave Durden DAVE DURDEN: Yeah, I mean, I, there's absolutely Ryan Murphy something to be learned from that. I think we're learning and have learned a lot in the past -- well, I don't want to Media Conference speak for others. I'll speak for me. I've learned a lot in the past year. I've learned a lot in the past four years, going from Rio to getting ready for Tokyo to getting ready for now THE MODERATOR: We'll take questions, please. 2021, getting ready for 2020 and now for 2021. My perspective is one as a college coach, which I understand Q. Ryan, how did the year-long delay impact your the balance of intercollegiate athletics and academic training approach, your mental approach, just your pursuits, which also includes professional pursuits that go overall build-up to the games? beyond the sport of swimming. Sometimes those professional goals do not involve swimming. Some of RYAN MURPHY: Yeah, so I think the build-up to the those professional life goals, as our guys get a little bit games was interesting in the fact that there actually was a older, a little bit more wise, a little more understanding that build-up in terms of what we were allowed to do at Cal. I they, that the sport that they have loved as a kid or even as think as the initial shutdown came down, we weren't able to adult, their priorities have changed, and we appreciate that.
  • ROWDY GAINES: a WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE by Mark Muckenfuss

    ROWDY GAINES: a WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE by Mark Muckenfuss

    ROWDY GAINES: A WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE By Mark Muckenfuss Check out the January issue of Swimming World Magazine and read all about Rowdy Gaines, past and present, in Emily Mason's "Still Kicking" column. In 1984, Rowdy won the 100 meter free at the Olympic Games in Los Angeles. Following is the story of Rowdy's Olympic triumph as it appeared in Swimming World back in September 1984: Sentimental favorite Rowdy Gaines polished off the end of his individual career with gold, achieving what he has so many times failed to do in the past few years: coming back in a final heat with a time faster than in the morning prelims. What looked like the end of a great American comeback story was tarnished, however, by a controversial start that left a bad taste in the mouths of many of the other competitors, particularly Australian Mark Stockwell, who won the silver, and American Mike Heath, who finished fourth. After congratulating Gaines on his win, Heath, who was caught off balance on the start and was the last swimmer off the blocks, struck at the water with his fist and angrily left the pool. He reportedly said he could have gotten a better start at a novice meet. The Australians filed a formal protest. Peter Evans, Stockwell's teammate, was furious. "You were robbed, mate," he told Stockwell as the medal winners walked to the awards presentation. The complaint was that the start was too quick. The Australians said official Francisco Silvestri of Panama fired the starting gun before all the swimmers were set.
