Although she couldn t use her arms to any degree while she healed, she was able to kick, and her intensity led her to develop a powerful dolphin kick. Ray Mitchell, head coach of the Concord (California) Terrapins, comments that now no one can stay with her in the 100-yard events because she stays underwater for approximately 60 percent of the race.<br><br>Brains Before Brawn<br><br>With her injury healed, Coughlin resumed her training and concentrated on her studies. When it came time to select a college, her choice was Berkeley, under the watchful eye of Coach Teri McKeever, the head women s coach at Cal Berkeley. Last year McKeever was named  Coach of the Year by the American Swim Coaches Association. <br>  There s a tremendous amount of pride at Berkeley, Coughlin offers,   pride in athletics and academics. A certain number of people never miss a football game. When you wear a Cal shirt and walk down the street, people all over yell,  Go Berkeley! It s great to be a part of that. Coach McKeever adds,  Natalie embodies what this university is ab,:9Pughlin has a full plate: on top of her full-time studies, she is committed to a rigorous training schedule that consumes up to five hours of her day (including plyometrics, pull-ups and heavy weight training exercises such as full squats  an individualized, high-tech program developed by Mary Dempsey, a strength coach at Cal). During her free time, however, she likes to surf, cook and do photography. And, every Wednesday, she goes home to Concord to have a family dinner with her father, Jim, a police sergeant; her mother, Zennie, a paralegal; and her younger sister, Megan. <br>It might seem ironic that a swimmer of Coughlin s caliber is so grounded, but then, maybe it s a large part of her power. She knows, and the world knows, that she has the potential to become the best woman swimmer ever, but she doesn t let the pressure drag her down. Coughlin s firm grip on reality is balanced by an equally buoy6@xa<
