In the end, it's one of the seasons that I'm most proud of. We put together a team that could have gone to nationals and looked like it belonged. With those people out, nobody would have thought we could have done that. They came together and stepped up their effort and routines. That group then did the same thing as last year. We could either keep pushing and do what we do, or fall apart. We had eight athletes and still managed to win the Big Ten Championships and go to the Super Six. That was the year that Elise Ray and Kallie Steffes got hurt. Scott: Yes, we went through something like that before back in 2003. As a coach, were the circumstances regarding last season pretty unique, or had you experienced something like that before?
