It's tough to tell how we'll stack up against the other teams, but we're prepared.

It's something they can bring in to their chest. They'll actually hold on to it. It will keep them a lot cooler.

It's going to be a tough situation because we are all entering with heavy hearts. But I think it's good for (Michigan) to come down and get off campus and compete.
cheering great job rooting vocal
They did a great job of rooting for each other and cheering each other on. They were a lot more vocal than the other team.

We have a pretty high standard of what we expect, and a lot of that comes from a lot of things Stark County has done.
fourth guys high maybe second swims ton types worked
We don't have a ton of second swims to show for, but our guys really worked their tails off. If we can keep getting these types of performances, we could get as high as fourth or maybe even third.
love stage taste
They got a taste of the big stage and would love to get back there.
bond chance develop hard mentality six team
They have a chance to be a team. It's hard to develop a team mentality when you only have one or two guys, but with six a team bond can develop.
amount change constantly cross last next
There?s been an unbelievable amount of change in the last 10 years. Where is the next 15 going to take us? We need to constantly look at what?s appropriate and what?s not appropriate so we don?t cross the line.

They didn't drop the rope in time to signal the false start and he swam the whole 50.

This is the third straight top-11 team (Michigan, Minnesota) we've faced, which is good for us, because there will be no surprises once we get to Big Tens. We'll come back to Bloomington in a few weeks, knowing exactly what we're up against.
seventh sixth
I thought we'd be sixth or seventh after the first day.
best came good home intense meet none number pleased ready recorded season weekend
I'm very pleased with our effort. We competed hard, recorded a number of season best times - and none of it came easy, which is good for us. It was a really intense weekend for our team, but we still have one more meet left, so we're ready to come home and go back to work.
ready sure
I'm bitterly disappointed, but we can't do anything about the past. All we can do is make sure we're ready for tomorrow.
