    As he prepares to compete in his second Olympics, Clearwater swimmer and former Countryside High standout Bobby Finke isn’t thinking about pressure or expectations.

    Finke, who won gold medals in the men’s 800 and 1,500-meter freestyle events three years ago in Tokyo, said late last month he simply wants to perform at his highest level, hoping to defend his titles.

    “(The goal is to) go there, have fun, do whatever I can to get my hand on the wall,” Finke said.
