Treasuring the moment

There Ann Marie May was, nervously sitting in a waiting room at the U.S. Olympic swimming trials with some of the best swimmers in the world.
And what were they doing?
Laughing and joking.
Wow.
Four years of training for this day. An Olympic spot on the line and here are a bunch of world class swimmers treasuring the moment.
How refreshing.
May, a Stevenson graduate, who earned All-American status this past spring in the 50-meter freestyle at UC Santa Barbara, felt right at home.
No it's not baseball were millions are on the line. Still, to see athletes embrace and relish being a part of something special is truly a lost art.
