A number of swimmers stepped up on night two of the 2016 Longhorn Aquatics Elite Invite. After the meet, Eddie Reese and 400 IM champion Regan Barney gave some quick interviews.

The legendary Eddie Reese had a few words after tonight’s finals session. His swimmers have been steadily improving over the course of the weekend. He shared some thoughts on last night’s 100 butterfly, and a few words headed into U.S. Olympic Trials.

Regan Barney earned her 400 Freestyle Trials cut last night. Tonight, she got the standard in the 400 IM on her way to winning that event. After the session, she spoke about her swims and what she is looking forward to for the rest of the summer.
