Inspirational Note:
“School is really important to me because I know that one day I will retire (from swimming) and will have to do something in the ‘real world.’ If I haven’t learned anything in school, then I will be lost. Plus, I think it’s very important to have a balanced life. If all I did was swim, I would go crazy, no matter how much I love it.”  --  Kate Ziegler: Compassionate, Caring and Determined to Succeed  (10/10/2006)
