Rick Kobe Quotations

We've won a ton of championships, sent a handful of kids to Olympic trials and a bunch of kids to the U.S. Open meet every year. This year should not be an exception.

We have the same goals every year. We've never achieved them, but we want to go undefeated, we want to win a conference championship and we want to have at least a 3.0 GPA. We've got two of the three a bunch, but the undefeated one is tough to do when you have some of the schools on your schedule that we do.

We don't have a lot of foreign kids, but the ones we do have are pretty good.

Diane is gone and she was an outstanding swimmer. But we have a couple of kids on the team who will push and should break some of her records this year.

The last two years on the guys' side, we've really graduated some athletes. Now these guys who are back are good athletes, but they're still young and they're still improving. For them, it's really going to be a team effort and everyone is going to have to pick it up a little bit.
