athlete attainable divers elite percent top
I think everybody's aspirations as an elite athlete are to be in the top of their sport, and I think (the Olympics) are attainable for Steven. He's in the top 5 percent of divers I've seen.
added capable champion confidence consistent focus heading helping ncaa needed next performance pleased pressure ready today
I am really pleased with Corey's performance. She did what she needed to do to get ready for next week. The pressure was off of her today and she could just focus on doing the dives that she was capable of without any consequence. That was a big thing in helping her be consistent today. She also added to her confidence heading into the NCAA Championships to be the 3-meter champion from this zone.
budget debt strive
We're a debt-free township and we strive in our budget to keep it that way.
bit competition counting dive entered finished finishing five however instead lapse learning mental performed platform points received seventh sixth steve thus
We started learning a new dive on platform before this competition and Steve had a little bit of a mental lapse in that he performed the new dive instead of what we had entered him to perform and thus automatically received no points on that dive. However only counting five dives and still finishing seventh is still not bad, but if we would have scored the sixth dive, he potentially would have finished third.
