Un (un) scared (skârd): The art of dealing with fear.

SJSU Women’s Swim Team WAC Champions

For those that say it cant work, some advice…

What you might be experiencing is something called cognitive dissonance or “true-believer” syndrome, both of which are natural psychological phenomena. Reason should prevail with time, but for now it’s important enough to recognize that your judgment might be affected.

Boom! I had the pleasure of seeing these girls compete twice this year, and speak with them a few days prior to leaving for the WAC Conference Championships. Head Coach Sage Hopkins has totally changed the way this Team trains, and is a believer in what we do. Nonetheless, he has created something with his team of coaches, and these girls. With 14 school records, 2 pool records, 2 WAC champ records, 1 overall WAC record and Coach Sage Hopkins being named WAC Coach of the Year, this team kicked ass, and brought home a title.

A Big Congrats to all!!!

Sage Hopkins, Pete Raykovich, Jaclyn Rosen, Julie Wynn, Mark Butcher
