This Mizzou Tigers swimmer is bringing a pretty epic medal haul back from China

After earning All-America honors at 2017 NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships, Missouri’s Michael Chadwick posed for a photo with three of the country’s other top sprinters: Caeleb Dressel, Ryan Held and Blake Pieroni.

A year and a half later, the four swimmers took another picture together. This time they stood together atop a podium, all holding gold medals.

Representing the U.S. National Team, Chadwick earned four golds and a silver at 2018 World Swimming Championships (25m) over the past week in Hangzhou, China. The Americans won 36 medals at the meet, 22 more than the next-closest country.
