Keaton Jones Rising Backstroke Star Episode 205


Listen Later

Ice in his veins! Olympic finalist Keaton Jones only needed one year at Cal to bridge the gap from being an elite junior to one of the world’s best, as he snagged the 2nd Olympic spot in the 200 backstroke at the USA Olympic Trials.

At his first Olympic Games, Keaton put together solid performances through the rounds to finish 5th in the Olympic final in Paris, just shy of the podium. Not bad for a college freshman.

Keaton Jones is also a pioneer in the sport of Ice Swimming! He’s a multi-time world champion in this niche sport that Keaton believes has a real chance at becoming a winter Olympic sport. So much so that he will take time out of his upcoming college season schedule in January to travel to the World Ice Swimming Championships where he is projected to haul in a slew of more medals to add to his frozen hardware collection.
