"This is a great swim meet, the fastest in the world. At a certain level we are happy to be here, since we weren't a year ago. But we are competitive coaches and we have competitive athletes - of course it is in the forefront of our minds that we want to come here and perform better. There were some really good takeaways from this weekend that are going to make us better as we look toward next season."
