Jassen Yep - The most surprising win of 2025 NCAA Swimming Championships | Episode 238

As a 5th year, even Jassen Yep didn’t think winning an NCAA Swimming title was possible until he touched the wall in the 200 breast. After touching, Jassen Yep let out raw emotion and excitement, resulting in a legendary swimming celly. Although it seems like Yep was an overnight success, there was a lot of hard work behind this win. Yep was an accomplished high school swimmer in California, representing Archbishop Mitty and swimming at PEAK with elite club coach Abi Liu. In high school, he went a 1:57 in the 200 breast to earn a small scholarship at Indiana. At Indiana, Jassen put in work and through various ups and downs, he dropped 9 seconds in the 200 breast to go a 1:48 200 breaststroke, becoming the third fastest performer in history. He is also the best dressed Social Kick guest of all time, rocking a tuxedo on the show and having Olympian Matt King serve him a chilled beverage. Entering the 2025 NCAA Swimming championships, Jassen Yep was convinced this would be his final meet. Lucky for us, he surprised himself, and we’ll get to watch him continue his career in the long pool. Enjoy and don't forget to subscribe for weekly podcasts and daily shorts!
