The NBC announcer indicated "He's out at Stanford". He has won a national (academic) scholarship of his country. His father helped start competitive swimming in his country by repairing a decrepit pool, the only one in the country.
If someone can confirm he is a Stanford student, then he should be added here & at GoStanford.com & Stanford Magazine.
He won the second heat at 24.71. Not a contender, but an Olympian.
He has a profile on Stanford.edu ("undergraduate") and his instagram profile says "Stanford '23" so it appears that he's a current Stanford student (presumably headed into his junior year).
