COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – The 2022 Open Water U.S. National Team, presented by Toyota, has officially gone into effect. The team was decided based on results from the 2022 Open Water National Championships 10K, which took place April 1 in Fort Myers Beach, Fla. The top-6 American finishers were named to the national team, giving the following individuals Open Water National Team titles:
“It’s one of my favorite parts of being a USA Swimming athlete,” Brennan Gravley said after his 10K in Florida when asked about qualifying for the U.S. Open Water National Team. “I feel like we have a lot of privileges, especially as open water swimmers.”
