Torrey Pines' Logan Noguchi turns to the 100 butterfly as he prepares for next month's section championships
After setting two San Diego Section boys swim records last season, Torrey Pines High School junior Logan Noguchi is poised to establish yet another mark this season.The holder of the 200 individual medley and 100 backstroke records, Noguchi has the 100 butterfly as a target as well as returning in the 100 back for his two individual races in the section championships May 3-6 at Granite Hills.
Noguchi originally focused on playing soccer as a youth, it figured he might gravitate to the pool, given his family’s interest in water activities. He followed his younger brother, Gavin, into swim training at age 10. “For my training, there’s a saying that you’re never confined to one stroke,” Noguchi said. “You’re not like one type of swimmer. You have to train every single stroke at all distances. So I have a really good mix of everything.”
“I do try to implement what they’re doing in my stroke to get better,” the 5-foot-9½ Noguchi said. “I have a big emphasis on technique, and that’s a really big portion of why I’ve become successful. Noguchi proceeded to set the records in the 200 IM and the 100 back with a repeat title in the latter event.
