Mike Cavic Quotations

We could have done a lot of things better, but overall, I'm pleased with how we did.

Though our finish wasn't great, we excelled in another area. We came together as a team this season.

The thing about Henrique is that he's kind of a lazy guy, but when it comes to racing, he's got this intense pride. The guy doesn't like to lose.

Sometimes you really need to lose to learn a lesson.

No two pools are the same and at Stanford, we'll have to get used to the feeling of the starting block and what the wall looks like when we're coming in.

It's going to be hard to replace a guy like Henrique. (Junior) Graham Lentz will be that guy that everyone depends on. He needs to recognize it and take on that responsibility.

Considering how strong the field of competition is, in retrospect, it doesn't surprise me as much as it had initially.

It not only makes us swim faster but it makes us tougher.

There's this energy that he brings. Being in his presence, you can't help but know things are going to be OK.

I definitely want to leave an impression on them. I want people to remember how I swim at this meet.
