I had mixed emotions going home. No doubt it had been a long trip. We had been on the road for a month. I also realized that this was the end of this journey. This team had competed together for the last time. We worked so hard to become a team...
I am sure that most of you have heard the result or seen the gold medal game by now. Unfortunately, the dream was not fully completed. We lost 14 – 10 to a powerful Hungarian team. We had gone through the Olympic tournament allowing an average of 6 goals per game up until this game. ...
I woke up feeling confident and really good. This is our day to shine. This is our time. The Hungarians have had their time and it is over. Change is the order of the world and today we are the change agents. The guys are just waking up...
I woke up yesterday with a great feeling. The first thing I thought is “this is our day” it is our time. The Serbs have dominated us for some many years. It...

We did it! We are back in the final four in the Olympic Games for the first time since 1992. The guys did great today. We beat Germany in a thriller 8 – 7. It was a great team effort. I am so proud of them. We celebrated and had a nice team dinner this evening. ...
Team USA Mens Water Polo is now guaranteed a top 4 Olympic placing having defeated Germany today in Beijing in a narrow 8-7 victory. Goalkeeper Merrill Moses was the story of the day, defending against 9 action shots and 9 5M attempts...
I woke up this morning with a good feeling. I am confident that our team will play well and beat Germany later today to move into the quarterfinal round. While it is great to feel confident we still have to play the game...
Today was huge. We beat a team that was as good as any one in the tournament. Just four days ago Croatia dominated Serbia - beating them 11 – 8. At one point in that game Croatia was ahead 10 – 4. Today we out played them in almost all aspects of the game. W...
This morning we played the Serbians. Our game plan was to beat them by playing four quarters of defense and not allowing Serbia to make any runs. The other important goal for today was to win the battle of 6 on 5 and 5 on 6...
