We've improved in a lot of areas the past few weeks. So we saw some good things. We have 10 days now to understand that we're entering a new level of competition.
That was a good way to end things. [Today] is our better day because we have some of our better people swimming.
[Ryan] never gets to swim that event, and we felt like he had a good shot at breaking Anthony's school record. He probably will in two weeks when we're shaved and rested. But Anthony was still a quality athlete.
You couldn't ask for a better role model.
I think it's important for people who didn't race well last week to do better this week.
I think what makes it's a big accomplishment because we're not hiding him. He is racing different events and doing a full training schedule all the time. It's not by design; he just does not like to lose. That type of streak would be like a quarterback not throwing an interception for three seasons.
Ryan is certainly the best swimmer we've ever had at the University of Florida.
We are going to miss them, but the supporting cast is better because of them. They are just flat-out tough, day-to-day, and they did it with work ethic.
[The Volunteers] are always really good at home, and they always race us tough. It is a pretty heated rivalry. We can't take them lightly.
