We have three weeks to focus on details, final matching of the routines and improving our lift height.

Many of our athletes are taking finals during Dead Week. I think our greatest challenge will be balancing finals with trying to win a national championship.

I am confident in our ability to swim these routines well, after swimming them back-to-back this weekend. Saturday and Sunday were two hard competition days in a row, so it was a great test of the team's endurance. [I was] very excited about the improvements the team made this weekend.

We're really excited to be going to Washington again.
