LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB)--  U of L swimming ranks among the best in the nation.

One swimmer is having a record-setting season and Olympic glory could be on the horizon.

Inside the Ralph Wright Natatorium on the U of L campus, it's hard to tell one swimmer from another. With goggles and swim caps on, individuals become a team, which is exactly how senior swimmer Kelsi Worrell likes it.

Worrell is a rising star in the swimming world, but it's her University of Louisville team she's focused on.

"We had multiple All Americans and were sixth in the country," said Worrell. "And that doesn't get a lot of press, but I'm more proud of that than anything I did individually."

What she doesn't mention is her own accomplishments. Just last month, Worrell set both an American record and a world record in just one night. Facing off against Europe's finest at Indianapolis' Duel in the Pool, Worrell set an American record in the 100 Butterfly.

"This whole year was just a blast," said Worrell. "It's starting to hit me, but it's still like weird those are associated with me."

Worrell also helped Team USA set a world record as part of the 400-Medley relay team.

"She was like 'We just set a world record! Can you believe it?' It was pretty shocking," said Worrell.

Worrell's coach says she handles the pressure with ease.

"There's actually this picture floating around right after she broke the American record for the first time and we're exchanging a hug behind the blocks. People were asking what was she saying? Well, what she was saying is 'I know, I know. I messed up my second wall'," said coach Arthur Albiero.

Consistency remains Worrell's top accomplishment.

"I've done all the preparation. I don't need to overthink things. I just want to let my body do its thing for my race," said Worrell.

She'll need that strong foundation as she moves forward in her career. While 2015 marked a huge year for Worrell, 2016 looks to be even bigger with a chance at the Olympics. The dream was far off when she started swimming at the age of 7.

"People would say 'Kelsi you're going to be an Olympian!' It's like do you understand how hard that is? (I'm) still not there, but I've done so much this year that I never would have thought and it's still very bizarre," said Worrell.

But the Olympic trials in June are the last thing on her mind.

"I just know that I have a lane and I have a chance. Other than that a lot can change," said Worrell.
