UT coach values connection to swimming and its virtues 07:33 PM CDT on Saturday, May 15, 2004 By CATHY HARASTA / The Dallas Morning News He has but two. Eddie Reese, the veteran University of Texas men's swimming coach, has enjoyed profound success. So it's hard to fathom that he'd look back with any trace of wistfulness. But if he had one thing to do over again, he said he might have skipped serving as assistant coach of the U.S. Olympic men's swimming team at the 1996 Atlanta Games. "I wanted to be a TV announcer," said Reese, who will be the U.S. men's head coach at August's Athens Olympics. "Then I could have convinced parents to put their kids in swimming for the values it teaches. Swimmers are special. I would love to get the personalities out there." "We do all the old-fashioned things and the soon-to-be-forgotten things," said Reese, who has coached at UT since 1978. "I try to find a way to get everybody to go faster.

For a page on Utah's flag, click here The year 2002 Winter Olympic Games are being held in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. The opening ceremonies were on February 8, 2002.

The Flag of the Olympic Games
The flag of the Olympic Games has five interlocking rings (blue, yellow, black, green, and red) on a white ground. The rings represent the five parts of the world that were joined together in the Olympic movement: Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia and Europe. The motto of the Olympic Games is "Citius, altius, fortius" (meaning "Faster, higher, stronger" in Latin). History of the Olympics Flag
The flag was first used in the 1920 Olympic Games in Antwerp, Belgium. The Olympic flag is paraded during the opening ceremony of each Olympic Games. At the end of an Olympics, the mayor of the host-city presents the flag to the mayor of the next host-city. The flag will remain in the town hall of the next host-city until the next Olympic Games, four years later.

Ancient Olympic Events
Running
Philadelphia MS739
Main panel: runner on right
Photograph by Maria Daniels, courtesy of The University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology There were 4 types of races at Olympia. The stadion was the oldest event of the Games. Runners sprinted for 1 stade (192 m.), or the length of the stadium. The other races were a 2- stade race (384 m.), and a long-distance run which ranged from 7 to 24 stades (1,344 m. to 4,608 m.). And if these races weren't enough, the Greeks had one particularly grueling event which we lack. There was also a 2 to 4- stade (384 m. to 768 m.) race by athletes in armor. This race was especially useful in building the speed and stamina that Greek men needed during their military service. If we remember that the standard hoplite armor (helmet, shield, and greaves)weighed about 50-60 lbs, it is easy to imagine what such an event must have been like.

Next Physics, technology and the Olympics
Feature: September 2000 What effect does technology have on the performance of athletes in sports such as the 100-metre sprint, the pole vault and the javelin? Ultimately, it seems that there is a conflict between the laws of physics and the laws of sport. The modern Olympic games were founded by Baron Pierre de Coubertin in 1896, with the intention of improving health and education, promoting world peace, and encouraging fair and equal competition. However, the motto of the modern Olympic games - citius, altius, fortius (swifter, higher, stronger) - shows that it is not only the taking part that counts. Winning is just as important now as it was 2500 years ago at the original games in ancient Greece. Then, as now, winning athletes were treated like heroes, given seats for life at theatres and public gatherings, and awarded cash bonuses, gifts and prizes. It is no wonder, then, that athletes - both ancient and modern - have used any means at their disposal to improve the speeds at which they can run, the distances they can throw and the heights they can jump. In sports such as the discus, hammer or javelin - where pieces of equipment are used - athletic performance is governed by the laws of physics, but ultimately limited by the arbitrary rules of sport. And herein lies the conflict. It is human nature for athletes to improve themselves so that they are swifter, higher and stronger - and to use technology if it helps. It is the role of sports' governing bodies to allow continual improvements to equipment, but to stop those developments that give any competitor too much of an unfair advantage. Conflict can arise as sport is not meant to be a test of who has the best equipment - it should be an even match between one athlete and another, and from one year to the next.
