Although it was only an 8 inch improvement, Coach and I had to make some changes in some of my bad habits. The good news is that it's not perfect, yet. The real improvement has been in my glide. I threw more than 7 feet farther with the glide than from a stand. Early in my high school adventures, I often threw less from sliding across the ring than from a stand! I am working hard on rebuilding my strength and with the better technique I believe I will have a few surprises left! As for the meet, it was virtually an All-California meet with Jill Camarena, Jessica Cosby and me throwing again just like high school. Jill threw spectacularly and seems to have made wonderful improvements this year working out at BYU.

“The Berger” There are some nicknames that I have heard throwers get over the years. I don’t have one myself, but I found out yesterday that my dad had one when he was a thrower at UCLA. We ran into John Smith of HSI (world record holder at UCLA in the 400 meters) and when he saw my dad—he was like, “The Berger!” I was like—what did John Smith call my dad? Then my dad explained that was one of his nicknames at UCLA. I thought that was pretty cool!
