2025 Outlook: If we do the things that the average person doesn’t want to do (the tedious, monotonous, and boring work needed to be great) then we will improve 1% better everyday and become a success. Success isn’t always winning; success is knowing you did everything in your power to be your best. That’s what we are looking to instill into all our athletes.
