What are your expectations from her as a coach?<br><br>LJ: I think the best coaches are those that things didn't come easy for, and she's worked hard for everything she's accomplished. And having carried a 3.8 GPA, she's a great role model for someone entering our program.<br><br>BFS: Kevin Mannon followed you from the University of South Carolina. Has he lived up to your expectations?<br><br>LJ: The biggest story about Kevin is the incredible improvements he made in college. Kevin was not a highly recruited athlete in high school and received only a partial college scholarship. But he went from being a mediocre high school athlete to being a nine-time All-American. Very few athletes in the country have made All-American that many times, and he still has one more year! <br><br>BFS: What are Kevin's best results in the weightroom?<br><br>LJ: He's got a 500 bench, 650 squat and a 380 power clean. <br><br>BFS: Some coaches believe that explosive lifts such as the power clean are dangerous. How to you respond to this?<br><br>LJ: In all my years of coaching I've never had anyone get injured doing a power clean or snatch! I think the coaches who believe these lifts are dangerous are the ones who don't know how to teach them. Honestly, I believe that explosive lifts are injury preventors because they prepare the body for the kind of shock it's going to get when taking a jolt or a hit.<br><br>BFS: In regard to specificity of training, how many elite-level throwers do you know who do not use the Olympic lifts?<br><br>LJ: At the elite level, none.<br><br>BFS: Does the snatch lift have any advantage over the clean as far as the throws go?<br><br>LJ: It's a quicker lift and can have a place in the training of a thrower, but in a high school situation the power clean may be a little easier to teach.<br> <br>BFS: In addition to weight training, do you do any plyometrics with your throwers?<br>LJ: With heavier athletes, orthopedic injuries are always a concern, so with our throwers we do mostly ground-level plyometrics. However, late in the season we do some box hops and depth jumps, but we're very controlled in the number of foot contacts and only perform these exercises twice a week. <br><br>BFS: Have you tested Jesseca's and Kevin's vertical jumps?<br><br>LJ: Yes, Jesseca has a 26-inch vertical and can grab the basketball rim. Kevin has a 33-inch vertical and can dunk very easily.<br><br>BFS: Has the administration at Wyoming been supportive of the track program?<br><br>LJ: Our athletic director is Lee Moon, and he's really given us a lot of support. We've been able to upgrade our facility and our equipment, and all this has given Kevin and Jesseca the opportunities to accomplish what they have. Our athletes are able to travel to the meets and get the necessary national exposure.<br><br>BFS: With the WAC having expanded to 16 teams, how has this affected track and field?<br><br>LJ: ortunity to lift anything big; fo instance, at last year s Worlds I was sick, so my strength wasn t there. I woke up with the flu the morning I competed. My snatch was still pretty good, because it s not all about strength, but when it came to the clean and jerks I ust couldn t clean it was just so heavy. I missed my last two warm-ups; I was lucky to get my opener. It was disappointing because I had been looking forward to clean and jerking 529 tF(j;2ò1tr6Apķ~n36<["B^1TMpU^=Ũq;:PvZ,g3J6ِg\AqȻꓦ.񩮍K) 8M 8s1Ro}ȭq798۵dJ'P?~'38&Z :HиH_mAͷk%Ub`23dA6ةd:"L14C2;pɂH9gusɒ+֤3n$9Ubz(Km8/ MNhճcW%ȑZ`:o{1v\ *r lb22( % n qHgڭc՝#nH)!@*|<73a7[4k2}5qTo0x,@Z.
