We have already made a lot of progress this season. A lot of guys have stepped up and competed very well. We've built up a lot of momentum and that will carry over into the outdoor season, starting this weekend.

We need to continue to refine our ability to compete. The more we immerse ourselves in the competition, the better prepared we'll be. We're not chasing marks as much as we are trying to win events. If we can do that we'll not only be better prepared for the Big Ten Championships, but the regional times will follow.

Progress is not alone a matter of technology.

One can not impede scientific progress.

In our seeking for economic and political progress, we all go up - or else we all go down.

We have no progress to report, and that is not good.
