Steve Duwel Quotations

This was as close as we have been all year to a full squad, especially on the girls side.

It was the most exciting diving competition I can remember. She's been working on more risky dives and she really came through. She's just made so many improvements since she gave up gymnastics and we were all glad to see it pay off.

This is the first year we've gone into the year with a significant loss as far as our top end. Last year I think they probably rode in with confidence. This year they're kind of looking over their shoulders a little bit.

This is the first time the boys have won a meet by more than 100 points. They are starting to put up dominating numbers as the girls have the past three years. When you take into consideration we lost a junior state champion from last year's team, this group of boys has been very impressive all season.

She did very well. She earned the victory. Five dives into the competition she was a solid second.

She trailed the whole race until the final 10 meters and then reeled everyone in. It's a great tribute to Bethany as one of our senior team leaders.

It is somewhat astounding when I think that in over four years, with various combinations of girls, we have taken first place every time in the 200 medley relay. That is a very impressive streak.

It was going to be a shootout for both teams and we knew it. Everything we did was great and somewhat unexpected. All the credit goes to the kids.

This was a dog fight. We thought there was a chance we could come away with nothing.

Hannah and Lauren will add some much needed support for our girls team as we look towards defending our state title.
