I can't tell you how excited I am to keep this ball rolling. |
It's going to be a challenge to win it. There are going to be good teams from back east that are anxious to be on the water. |
It's really a toss-up this time of year. |
Many of my best races are just a blur to me. I row the race from move to move and keep my head in the boat. You follow the race plan A to Z, and you just do not quit. We did just that, we rang that bell-note the whole way down the course and sent the dogs home crying. |
Our race on Saturday was the most focused and well-executed race this year. Every race we've been getting better and better. |
Over the past few years, I haven't seen the kind of drive I'm seeing this year to train hard, to work as a team, to willingly do the supplementary training. This could be the formula for an incredibly successful season. |
We've got a lot of driven guys who have experience at the domestic and the international level. |
What happened in Mission Bay with Stanford, as far as I am concerned, will stay in Mission Bay. Yeah, losing to Stanford sucked, I am not going to lie about that, but that is in the past and thankfully we have this weekend to let them know that Cal is back in business. |
