It's tough. Looking at our district, you've got at least three teams that will finish top five, top 10 in the state in both boys and girls.

I expected us to be top five but when they announced third, I was shocked. We had some good swims, especially in the 200-yard medley relay. I was just glad to be there and see it happen.

Absolutely amazing. To come back from a shoulder injury from last year where he couldn't swim, it was amazing.

Last year he couldn't even swim his shoulders were so bad. [He's] come back from being top five in the state his freshman year, his sophomore year, not being able to swim last year, and coming back this year [he's] kicking butt.

Down at state, everybody is going to be a good wrestler. I know that it will be tough right from the start, and I'm going to have to be ready for that.

I think that women just have a primeval instinct to make soup, which they will try to foist on anybody who looks like a likely candidate.
