Lakeside’s Alex Zettle dropped three seconds from his best time and pulled away from his competition to win the men’s 400 free at Speedo Junior Nationals, claiming his first-ever title at that meet.

After the race, Zettle explained in an interview with Swimming World how much it meant for him to achieve a win on that level and what it meant to crack a meet record set by Olympic gold medalist Townley Haas—his future teammate with the Texas Longhorns.
