Welcome to The Swim Swam Podcast.
Coleman HodgesHOST
I'm today's host, Coleman Hodges, and joining us today we have Nikita Sheremet, the European champion in the 50 free, winning in a 21.13, a Ukrainian record, and oh-so-close to Ben Proud's 21.11 European Championship record.
Coleman HodgesHOST
Sheremet had a standout season at the University of Louisville his freshman season this past year in the 2025-2026 college season, and he's going into the 2026-27 season with a full head of steam after a gold medal in Paris this past summer, as well as an NCAA All-American title in the 50 freestyle.
Coleman HodgesHOST
Sheremet has a lot of momentum, and shares with us what this last year has been like for him.

In terms of what caliber of athletes did we have, it was a combination of both.

So we had on the one hand side athletes that were like at their absolute prime.

So for example, a Ben Proud, an, a British swimmer who had just been, you know, second at the Olympics in Paris, second at the World Championships in 2025.

Ben was like in the prime of his career when he made the move, and there's many more of them like Ben.
