Thanks, AustinTXPony, for recognizing the performance and strength of our Olympic (Non-revenue) sports. As a swimmer, the sport was central to my four years on the Hilltop. The dedication and commitment to someone’s sport is invaluable and provides a greater appreciation for one’s college days. Most important are my teammates with whom you share the sacrifices and who remain friends along after graduation.

Basketball and, most importantly, Football are more important to the broader student body and alumni. I love the progress of both sports and want SMU to be nationally recognized. Pride in SMU and being a Mustang has gained recognition with many, who have forgotten our past.
