I was somewhat concerned that we wouldn't race as well as we have been, because it's Michigan. But after we won that first relay, we started to believe that we could maybe win this meet.

(Michigan) has had one of the best programs around. We've had some competitive meets with them. A couple times we swam better, but their diving beat us.

I definitely feel I belong in a race (that Powell is in). In Athens (2004 Olympics), looking around at the crowd, I had a sense of belonging. That's what I'm here to do, what I was born to do -- my destiny, I suppose.

I am somewhat concerned with this. It felt like I had my thumb stuck in a freezer. I couldn't tell if my thumb was even on the right spot on the ball. It got to the point where I was constantly thinking about it. You can't have that going on.

There are gaps in his timeline that we are concerned about. Nothing outside of Michigan has been confirmed yet.

All of these groups are concerned about the same general set of things, namely what's happening to Michigan and how do we get where we need to go better, easier, faster, quicker, with fewer people hurt.
