Attitude Quotes
I thought he was of state-placing caliber last year, but unfortunately he was a sightseer the first time (at state). Most kids are. This year, with the fact he's already gone there, we're hoping he'll go there with a new attitude and hopefully push for a winning position. I'd like to see him win the whole thing.

Against Quotes
We had some good results today. I was very proud of the team. It has been a tough three days but it has been a good experience. Every race was very competitive and we gave it our all. To be able to come here and swim against top ten caliber teams and perform well I think puts us in good standing and helped prepare us for the ACC championships. Once we get some rest and are in a better environment with the whole team there then I think it will come a lot easier.

Athlete Quotes
From a budgetary standpoint, we?re nowhere close to the Tour de Georgia or Tour of California. They have budgets around $3 to $4 million. Ours is under $100,000. The difference there is pretty striking. Even though our course and level of road racing in the event mimics those of the larger events, in terms of the prize money we can offer and the caliber of athlete we hope to get to come, we really can?t compete until we have a larger budget. That?s the hard and fast reality. We?d like to get to that budget, but we?re not there yet.
