Brooks Curry Smashed Records, Surpassed Goals in Year One

LSU freshman swimmer Brooks Curry set out one goal before the season: make it to NCAAs.

Finishing the season as the fastest freshman in the country in all three freestyle events, along with his standout performance at SEC Championships, qualified him to reach that goal, and forced him to set new ones.

But like hundreds of LSU spring student-athletes, Curry was one of many who felt the sudden impact of widespread COVID-19 cancelations. Everything seemed to shift in the blink of an eye, and Curry was ultimately never able to showcase his talents in the events he worked so hard to compete in.
