A lot of people are coming up and having strong finals and taking points, and that's a good indication of the depth in short track.

Her family was really supportive. The athletes were really concerned. They stayed behind her. These guys train together every day. It's an incredible accomplishment for her to skate in an individual event.

I don't think we've developed the relationship well enough where maybe inline can get something from short track and maybe we can get something from inline and work together.

Given the level that he's reached in such a short period of time, Anthony is on a very steep progression curve. He still has a lot more improving to do, but the biggest thing I see in Anthony is just the consistency in his skating technique.

He'll be in a situation where he'll need to handle certain issues, which will be good for minimizing that distraction at the Games.

We haven't talked about it.

He needs good starts and good draws in the semifinals and finals. If he gets stuck in the back, he needs to stay cool.

We need more skaters. We need more people involved.

I think he knows he could have raced better.
