We're back. That is what it used to be and we need to keep it there. It worked today, but those distances aren't going to hold up all the time.

Today, most people read on screen.

Literacy is such a complicated adventure today.

There was some attrition at the top in the heptathlon, but that is the nature of the multi-events. By hanging in there and plugging away and doing real close to his personal bests he got us points. The thing about Jimmy is that he is not going to be perfect, but he is always going to be gritty. He will never back away and he will come at you and will give it a go. He doesn't have to apologize when it is over.

We got a fifth year back for him and he took full advantage of it. He had a ton of heart and got his national championship. I just couldn't be happier. That goes along with his sixth-place finish in the long jump which was unexpected. It was just awesome.

At the conference meet he had a great meet. For the field events, he?s the man. He could come out with 14 points!
