Swimmer Minakov on his return to the NCAA: “The first meeting of the game took place in the rain”

world championship medalist Andrei Minakov said that when he returned to the United States, he spoke in the first game meeting, which was held in the rain.

Minakov studies at Stanford. Late last week, he won the 100m freestyle in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) competition.

– Everything is going according to plan, I managed to come to Russia and participate in the Russian Championship and the Salnikov Cup, but no one canceled my studies. I came back after the New Year, I already took part in the competition – it was just a match meeting, we don’t even put on overalls. The first match was against the University of the Pacific, it was not in the most favorable weather conditions, the competition took place in the rain. There was little fun, but we already get it from doing what we love. It’s been a week since I went back to study, I like to attend classes, study new materials,” Minakov told .
