DYLAN RHEE COMPETES AT U.S. OLYMPIC TEAM TRIALS

Congratulations to Dylan Rhee on your performance at the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Trials in Indianapolis, IN. Dylan raced among the nation's best for the second Olympic cycle in a row, following his 200-meter breaststroke in 2021.

The AGUA coaches could not be more proud of Dylan's career and for continuing the decades-long legacy of AGUA athletes racing at the Olympic Trials.

We would also like to thank all the AGUA swimmers and families who traveled to watch and cheer Dylan on!
