Several Olympic athletes as well as current and former Louisville Cardinals competed in the second annual TYR Derby Pro Meet at the Ralph Wright Natatorium on Saturday.

The event not only features some of the world’s best swimmers, but also doubles as a fundraiser for the Drowning Prevention Foundation.

This year, the format was switched up to accommodate and attract more well-known names. The competition featured three separate rounds in 50 meter races, with the two slowest athletes being eliminated in each of the first two rounds.
