Ryan Held, a junior on the swim team at NC State, takes a break during practice in the Carmichael Aquatic Center in July. After being called a "no-name swimmer" at the trials, Held commented on how he'd like to make a name for himself. "I think hopefully I can prove myself worth enough to be on that night relay and start making a name for myself. It's kind of hard to believe as a 21-year-old that this is honestly just the start of my career. Most swimmers don't retire until 28 or 29 so I still have a few Olympic Games in me to train for, hopefully." Held qualified for the men's 4x100 freestyle and swam in the relay with Michael Phelps.
