Considering how strong the field of competition is, in retrospect, it doesn't surprise me as much as it had initially. |
I definitely want to leave an impression on them. I want people to remember how I swim at this meet. |
It not only makes us swim faster but it makes us tougher. |
It's going to be hard to replace a guy like Henrique. (Junior) Graham Lentz will be that guy that everyone depends on. He needs to recognize it and take on that responsibility. |
No two pools are the same and at Stanford, we'll have to get used to the feeling of the starting block and what the wall looks like when we're coming in. |
Sometimes you really need to lose to learn a lesson. |
The thing about Henrique is that he's kind of a lazy guy, but when it comes to racing, he's got this intense pride. The guy doesn't like to lose. |
There's this energy that he brings. Being in his presence, you can't help but know things are going to be OK. |
Though our finish wasn't great, we excelled in another area. We came together as a team this season. |
We could have done a lot of things better, but overall, I'm pleased with how we did. |
