competition excited focus forward good looking opponent regardless speed ten terms time year
Regardless if it is a Big Ten opponent or a non-Big Ten opponent, this time of the year the focus is still to get up and race. I'm awfully excited to see where we are right now in terms of racing. I'm looking forward to see what kind of speed we have right now. There's going to be some good competition out there.

With a 13-event format, there's little margin for error. We need more front-end, easy speed, and we need more lively arms in the water. We looked too heavy last week.
approach distance eliminate guard highs knocked proud six steady successful win
With a championship meet, you want to eliminate the highs and lows, and just have a strong, steady approach for six sessions. That's how you win a championship or have successful championships. It's kind of like the prizefight. If you let your guard down, you're going to get knocked out. We want to be able to go the whole distance and be able to go out there and put up something to be proud of.

We don't have the most talent, we don't have the most depth, but I think we're better than what we were a year ago. I hope they are going to prove me right.
