Welcome back to the quarter of the day show. I'm your hope, Sean,

Crox and the Sean Crox and calm. We got Sean,

0:37.5

Ditty, Combs, all the show today wrapping up our week.

0:41.6

And he's going to tell you what it takes to compete at the highest level.

0:48.6

How do you get yourself up to the front of the crowd instead of in the back?

0:54.8
