FEBRUARY 2022 FEATURES

012 A GOLDEN JOURNEY
by Matthew De George
Ashleigh Johnson, a two-time water polo Olympic gold medalist, continues to put in the work to stay on top of her game, a level of talent that has made her a global water polo icon. And with it, she’s contemplating what it will take to keep elevating the sport in the global consciousness.

014 PODIUM POTPOURRI: MAGGIE MAC NEIL
by Dan D’Addona
Swimming World takes a get-to-know-you look with Olympic medalists in our new bimonthly “Podium Potpourri” series. First up is Maggie Mac Neil. She is an Olympic gold medalist for Canada, world champion, world record holder, NCAA champion and an NCAA record holder.

016 THE MISSED TURN: A VICTIM OF CIRCUMSTANCE
by John Lohn
American Allison Wagner set a SCM world record in the 200 IM in 1993 that lasted nearly 15 years. However, through no fault of her own, she never won a gold medal at the Olympics or long course World Championships. At the 1994 Worlds in Rome and 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, the medley master collected three silver medals, each time finishing behind opponents suspected of doping.

018 ISHOF FEATURE: CHINA’S JOAN OF ARC—THE STORY OF YANG HUIMIN AND THE EIGHT HUNDRED
by Bruce Wigo
Over the past several years, ISHOF has featured the stories of courageous swimmers during wartime, such as Bernard Freyberg, Teddy Cann and Charles Jackson French. This month comes the story of a girl from China, Yang Huimin, who was called “China’s Joan of Arc” by the international press and dubbed “the heroine of the doomed battalion.”

021 FULL OF PROMISE
by Jesse Marsh
With two NCAA titles plus medals at the Olympics, World Championships and Pan American Games at just 22 years old, diver Joshua Capobianco has the potential to be an American great in the sport and have his name etched alongside legends like Greg Louganis and Sammy Lee.

026 READY TO TAKE THE NEXT BIG STEP
by Matthew De George
Only 18 at the time, sprinter Joshua Liendo treated last summer in Tokyo as an opportunity to gain experience in his first Olympics. He competed in three individual events and swam on two relays, including the 400 free relay that broke the Canadian record while finishing fourth. With added confidence, the podium in Paris in 2024 now becomes the more realistic aim.

028 MOTIVATED FOR MORE
by David Rieder
Canada’s Kylie Masse remains on her run of nearly unprecedented, sustained success in the 100 back after having also developed into an elite 200 backstroker. Her track record lends credence to the idea that Masse will remain a strong international medal contender for the years to come.

032 MAINTAINING THEIR STANDARD
by Dan D’Addona
Look for Savannah College of Art and Design and Keiser University to lead the competition at the NAIA Swimming and Diving Championships, while Indian River should take care of business again at NJCAAs.

034 NUTRITION: SUNNY D!— FOOD + SUN =VITAMIN D
by Dawn Weatherwax
In the past couple of years, vitamin D has received a lot of attention regarding how it impacts overall health. However, many athletes still do not realize how vitamin D impacts athletic performance.

040 SWIMMING TECHNIQUE CONCEPTS: MAXIMIZING SWIMMING VELOCITY (Part 8)—OPTIMAL STROKE CYCLE FOR BACKSTROKE AND BREASTSTROKE
by Rod Havriluk
There is the potential for considerable performance improvement in backstroke and breaststroke primarily by decreasing the non-propulsive phase time. Calculations using the drag equation predict that even elite swimmers can make substantial performance improvements and achieve world record times.

042 SPECIAL SETS: CHAS MORTON REVISITED
by Michael J. Stott
