:help: Sorry, just a rant for those of you out there who sympathsize with my college swimming experience..
Okay, I have not spoken to my coach since his comment after my 100free at championships regarding the fact that I don't have any heart, and thats why I am swimming poorly. I can't imagine saying that someone doesn't have heart, when they've given sweat, blood and tears to the sport all in one season. If I wasn't caring that I was stinking, then maybe it would be reasonable to say I didn't have heart, but I was miserable and trying anything to improve my season...so that annoyed me, and I didn't talk to him for the rest of the meet, and haven't talked to him since.
Got an e-mail today that he is making it mandatory that we attend 3 practices a week with him, from now till the end of the semester.
#1. it has been 3 months since championships==why now?
#2. This is the most hectic time of the semester for EVERYONE
#3. I don't want to swim with him in the off season, which is why I am doing masters
:( Miserable in Albany

Sounds like a make or break time for you Morgan! I would do just like knelson said....go talk to him! Let him know how much you really are trying! How many others are on the team? Remember, he is probably dealing with several other personalities as well. Sometimes it takes you to make sure he is referring to you when he makes comments like that. Might have even been just a tool to push you a little further....if so, sounds like it is working!
