Always exciting to see the young swimming talent out there and the true passion and dedication from their coach. Makes me want to push myself harder to be a better coach. Awesome interview and a true testament to the spirit of the sport.

Great interview. Especially like his comments about why Katie swam at Junior Nationals rather than Senior Nationals last year. Just because someone can swim at a higher level doesn’t always mean that they should. These kids work so hard and deserve to experience success each step of the way. Best of luck to Katie in Omaha & beyond.

Very young coach who seems to have his act together and doing the right thing for the athlete. The best of luck at Trials and down the road.
