Curry, who swam four years for LSU and last competed collegiately at the 2023 NCAA Championships, has been training in Berkeley since the summer of 2023, and although he appeared in the transfer portal earlier this season, was reportedly not planning on competing for Cal, at least in 2024-25.
However, despite not currently being listed on the Cal roster, Curry’s appearance on the ACC psych sheets tell us he’ll be competing for the Bears next week at the conference meet and ultimately the NCAA Championships next month (provided he qualifies).
The 24-year-old is entered with no time in the men’s 50, 100 and 200 free. His best times would seed him 1st in the 50 free (18.56), 2nd in the 100 free (40.84) and 1st in the 200 free (1:31.30). The only swimmer with a faster seed time than Curry’s PB in the 100 free is teammate Jack Alexy (40.82).
Curry has not raced in a sanctioned meet since the 2024 Olympics in Paris, where he split 1:45.96 on the U.S. men’s 4×200 free relay in the prelims before the team earned silver in the final.
At the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, Curry won gold as a member of the U.S. men’s 4×100 free relay, and he also won a world title in 2022 on that relay.
The addition of Curry comes after the Cal men added Belgian Olympian Lucas Henveaux and French Olympian Mewen Tomac to their roster for the second semester in January.
NOTABLE ENTRIES
Virginia’s Gretchen Walsh has pre-entered in five events for ACCs, so she’ll have to drop two from her lineup once the meet rolls around. She’s entered in the three events she won last year at both ACCs and NCAAs, the 50 free, 100 free and 100 fly, and also holds entries in the 100 and 200 back. Claire Curzan has the exact same entry list as Walsh: 50 free, 100 free, 100 back, 200 back, 100 fly. Alex Walsh holds six entries coming into the meet, so it’s hard to gauge what she’ll end up swimming. The defending champion in the 200 breast, 200 fly and 200 IM, Walsh has entered in those events to go along with the 200 free, 100 breast and 100 fly. Stanford’s Torri Huske has a hybrid of the two Walsh sister’s entries. She’s got four of the same events as Gretchen with the 50 free, 100 free, 100 back and 100 fly, and is also entered in the 200 IM. Cal’s Destin Lasco has pre-entered in five events—his normal NCAA lineup of 100 back, 200 back and 200 IM, and he’s also in the 100 and 200 free. His teammate Gabriel Jett has six events in his lineup one week out: 200 and 500 free, 100 and 200 back, 200 fly and 200 IM.Read the full story on SwimSwam: Brooks Curry Entered For Cal As Psych Sheets Drop For ACC Championships
