Buffalo Quotes
I thought the OSU meet was a great opportunity for our team to swim a more competitive team and go out and race. We were challenged, and it was a help to get us ready for racing at the conference championships. Buffalo was more of a cap-off to the season where we were able to swim some different events and enjoy ourselves a bit.

Against Quotes
Our research from talking with students said they wanted a fun pool where they can relax and have a good time. That's why we envisioned a leisure pool with some lap lanes. You can swim in the leisure part of the pool. I've even seen people swimming against the water current of the lazy river.

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.

Chance Quotes
We didn't swim well (last Friday), particularly in the morning session. The upside was we still were in second place. We told the guys even though we didn't match our times from district in most of the events (in the morning preliminaries), we still have a chance to do very well. They got fired up and did well in the evening session.

Course Quotes
We didn't have any school records drop at the MSL or yet this year, but I think that there are a number of school records that may be in danger of falling yet this year. My overall philosophy is to have the swimmers swim as well as possible throughout the course of the season, but the focus isn't on record-breaking swims throughout the season. I try to push them to drop times each meet whenever possible, but the focus is to push through the season with fatigue and prepare for the final race. ... I think we should see some great finishes to the season.

Running Quotes
You know you're smarter than all of them, right?" Hale said flatly. "In fact, if you wanted to PROVE it..." He glanced at the blackjack tables. Simon shook his head. "I don't count cards, Hale." "Don't?" Hale smiled. "Or won't? You know, technically, it's not illegal." "But it's frowned upon." Sweat beaded at Simon's brow. He sounded like someone had just suggested he swim after eating... run with scissors... "It is SERIOUSLY frowned upon.

Mistake Quotes
What do you first do when you learn to swim? You make mistakes, do you not? And what happens? You make other mistakes, and when you have made all the mistakes you possibly can without drowning - and some of them many times over - what do you find? That you can swim? Well - life is just the same as learning to swim! Do not be afraid of making mistakes, for there is no other way of learning how to live!

Both Quotes
There is a consistency of femininity and glamour which sort of pulls the two together. I think both the '50s and '60s are wonderful because they are very pared-down. It's minimal and very chiseled. All the little details play an important role, like scalloped edges, belts, the little hip-hugger pants and the little sweater, combined together with swim wear.

Anticipate Quotes
Without the meet being limited entries, second place in the league is pretty good. It's what we could've expected. Really we thought outright second in the league was where we would end up because we did not anticipate losing to Brandon. We didn't swim like we were supposed to that day but we felt pretty good about coming out front in the Metro Meet.

Afterwards Quotes
What she did would be the equivalent of someone from here on the track and field team, or the swim team, competing in the Olympic trials. She was hard on herself afterwards since she usually finishes at the top, but the reality is that those were the only thirty or so skiers in the country that could beat her.

Couple Quotes
We wanted to get them in there, get them in the meet and let them experience state. It's a lot different type of meet. There's a lot of stress and pressure on them. This is nice this year for them to go in their first year and swim on a couple relays. It looks like they got a good shot at swimming on Saturday. The more races you get at that level, the better.

Athletes Quotes
Very impressed with the Spring-Ford team, for a high school program to just be beginning. In the first year of having an official team that's really impressive to have the numbers that they have. We had the opportunity today to swim a variety of events. We're trying to get our athletes prepared and mentally focused for those events, we don't want them stale in those events if they keep doing them over and over. Obviously we're going to find out where we stand in the upcoming weeks.
