Swimming World — The audience cracked up as Troy Mullaney decribed a tall, gangly, naive swimmer who had joined his high school team after watching an Ashton Kutcher movie, “The Guardian,” and thinking “it looked easy.”
The new guy was Jake Stoll, and the two became fast friends between drives to practice, school, and QuickTrip, and through constant duels in the pool. Stoll joined Mullaney in front of the crowd at last April’s Arizona Aquatic Sports Foundation fundraising dinner with the same light-hearted, comedic tone as his best bud.

Jake cut ties with his father after a few hurtful occurrences during his time as a swimmer at St. Cloud State. First, his father decided watching his son at NCAAs was not worth his time, then he remarried and acquired a whole knew family without informing his kids or ex-wife.
