It's official. Caeleb Dressel will be racing Saturday afternoon at the 2017 TYR JAX 50.
The fastest half-man/half-gator of all-time in the short course yards pool will be taking on the likes of Cullen Jones, Josh Schneider, Simonas Bilis, and Nicolas Nilo. Dressel has the fastest seed time (18.20) in this field by over half a second. In a 50 freestyle. Against fellow Olympians and NCAA champions. Unbelievable.
*DISCLAIMER: Since Dressel is still competing for the University of Florida, under NCAA rules, he CANNOT accept any prize money associated with this event. He can, however, still compete.
So how does Dressel prepare for the epic sprint showdown? By cramming on people on the sand volleyball court, of course. It even looks like he is rocking the fanny pack -- if so, that boosts his already stellar credibility through the roof. Or is it the ceiling? You're really confusing us, Michael Jordan.
