They had already had their indoor season and been practicing. So I was less prepared. I can't drop out of a conference tournament. Plus, in order to be a successful student, you just don't have time for everything.

Rudy and I would play one-on-one and he would just pick me apart. He would tell me what moves he was going to make and he would still score on me. No one had really pushed me like that before.

That was because it was the last event of the day and it was an entire lap around the track. Your not jogging that lap either. I could never rest. I was never finished until the bus was warming up.
