Losing sucks. I don't think most people understand how bad it feels.

You've got to acknowledge what you did wrong and see if you can fix it to the extent possible, and turn the page.

I have coaching friends, and when we get together, we often talk more about what we're doing to get players' attention than we do about the fascinating X's and O's of our sport.

To make a coverage decision, doesn't one have to make a medical judgment?

After my swims this weekend I think coach realized, you know what, you have to have a good one getting out of this meet. So I put the suit on and had a decent swim.

I've always been very determined, ever since I was a little girl, to make my way.
