    Parents' Weekend

    one important point is they can stay with you at your hotel on Friday night, they just need to be back per the squad for the tailgate or whatever is required by the squad. Plan early as hotels do fill up. If they are a 4dig they will most likely want to eat and sleep, but don't be discourage...

    Medically Disqualified

    It is hard to get a waiver for that - I had that issue a long time ago. Close friend of family was top notch swimmer with that type of myopia and could not get waiver. Sorry to burst bubble, go ahead and try but it is so competitive that they just don't need to grant waivers.

    Sophomore in College

    You would have to start over as a freshman, but could take more advanced classes. If you really want to be an officer you have other options, which others on this board can brief you on. ROTC is an option and if it is not available at your school you could transfer to someplace like A&M...

    Advice about pull ups?

    If you have a pool nearby, hang from the diving board starting at the end. As you get stronger move towards the deck as the board has less flex and you will not be as deep in the water. Worked for lots of girl swimmers on the team we had since the water helped with support and still allowed...

    wyo uniforms classless?

    Good for your dad - don't think adds a thing to the conversation, every place has successes and failures. Point was if you want to honor services by wearing a military uniform then do it, but don't use the names IMHOP. My point was brought out later in the game and after: when you represent...

    wyo uniforms classless?

    Christensen earned a bachelor of arts degree in sociology from Western Washington in 1985 - not a conservative place. And if you check the history after last seasons game there were some nasty words with Calhoun. So don't put it past them.

    wyo uniforms classless?

    It is one thing to wear a military appreciation uniform but putting the names on the back is a step to far. I missed the beginning of the game so I am not sure if there is an explanation around the names/uniforms. IMHOP those names are earned.

    wyo uniforms classless?

    Was it just me or did the Wyoming uniforms mock USAFA with the honor loyalty integrity service names on the back. I thought it was a classless punk act by the commie Christiansen. There is nothing about service or loyalty with Wyoming. I will not go into the academics or partying there...

    To the class of 2017

    ...And remember completing BCT 1, BCT 2 are milestones not the end game. Be prepared for a long road, Recognition, Commitment, Ring Dance and Graduation - It takes a lot of hard work and persistence. Then you emerge and continue on a new road in which you get to work hard and apply what you...

    medical turnback

    Unfortunately not, she had some minor complications that are not too serious but they are disqualifying. She will be attending a civilian school on a full tuition swimming scholarship. She is disappointed, but everything happens for a reason. At least she can watch her brother graduate in 2014.
