She went on to win her first US National title and made her first Olympic team for Tokyo where she collected some hardware for TeamUSA.

Day 6 was short and sweet, seeing a few new Olympians and quite a few doubles. Annie Lazor made her first Olympic team after taking a break from the sport in 2016-17 as did Natalie Hinds. Michael Andrew, Chase Kalisz, Ryan Murphy, and Lilly King all added their second events for their lineups. And newbies Bryce Mefford and Erika Brown added their names for the Tokyo roster. Oh, and Caeleb Dressel broke a US Open record, as he does.

Natalie Hinds and Lia Neal, two of the greatest swimmers in U.S. history, are competing for the Cali Condors in the International Swimming League (ISL) which is taking place in the "Budapest Bubble", the Dunn Arena in Hungary. The two African-American standouts join SportsJam host Doug Doyle from Hungary for this special edition of the podcast. The video version of the show can be seen here . Hinds (Midland Texas), a 20-time NCAA champion and 3-time SEC champion for the University of Florida, has been one of the Condors' top peformers and consistently finishing in the top three in her races that began in mid-October. Those results are amazing considering Hinds took time away from swimming before returning to high-level competition. Neal (Brooklyn, New York), a two-time Olympic Medalist (Bronze in 2012 and Silver in 2016), was a guest on SportsJam with Doug Doyle in 2013 when she was a 17-year old competing at a Rutgers swimming event after capturing her first Olympic Medal.

I sat down with 20-time NCAA All-American Natalie Hinds, who is a seasoned veteran of the sport at this point. She was a big fish in a small pond growing up in Midland Texas, then came to the U of Florida and became a 3-time team captain there. She left swimming to pursue a job at Turner Media, then came back and is now a returning member of the ISL's Cali Condors. In Short, Natalie has a wealth of swim knowledge and experience to share.

Let Olivia and Natalie’s candid and humorous takes on our current state be a deep breath and a few laughs for your weekend.
