It's one of the strongest teams we've had in years.

(The meet against Stanford) had to be the fastest dual meet ever swum at USC. It was the best performance of any Trojan team I have had.

We just talk all week about the Lexus Gauntlet. We just want to make sure that we make our contribution.

Having the honor to help the nation's best coaches cultivate the nation's best talent is huge. Anything I can do to help them win Olympic medals and give our athletes the best possible Olympic experience will be my goal.
