Photo Courtesy: Daryl Marshke\/University of Michigan Athletics<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThis group just works their tail off every single day,\u201d Garcia said. \u201cEveryone is so dedicated and so focused. It is all about the team and representing Michigan. I am just humbled to be a part of it. This is what I envisioned being a part of a college team was going to be like. I am very grateful for the opportunity to experience that for the rest of my eligibility.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Garcia&#8217;s blue-collar attitude immediately fit in with the Wolverines.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaving Taylor on the team has a great impact,\u201d senior <strong>Gabby DeLoof<\/strong> said. \u201cShe is going to basically be an automatic scorer in our NCAA relays, plus her individual events. She is great to be around. She works really hard and tries to push people to the best they can be. She will help our sprint group develop.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It is a mutually beneficial situation as Garcia also feeds off of her teammates.<\/p>\n<p>People just have their heads down and are hammering away during practice, but it is so positive,\u201d she said. \u201cWe are all focused on the goal of winning the Big Ten and being one of the top teams at NCAAs. That is something that everyone focuses on every single day at practice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Garcia is united with DeLoof and her two sisters on the team. They grew up swimming against each other.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrowing up in Michigan, we swam against each other all the time. Gabby and I went to a couple of camps together. You just form those relationships over time. It is really fun to be on the same team as them,\u201d Garcia said. \u201cThey definitely bring a fun sisterhood to the team, literally. All of my teammates here are so focused and so driven. It is just incredible to be a part of.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe went to camps together and four years of racing against each other. We were great friends but the dynamic of being teammates has been great,\u201d DeLoof said.<\/p>\n<p>Michigan will compete at the Georgia Invitational next week, something Garcia has been looking forward to.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt Georgia, we can swim four individuals, so I will swim both backstrokes, the 50 free and 100 fly,\u201d Garcia said. \u201cI am really excited. It is a new place. I have never been there before. We don\u2019t really shave or taper for it, so I am excited to see how fast we can all go.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That includes All-Americans from all over the world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur entire team is accepting and loving. It doesn\u2019t matter where you come from. We all support each other. We definitely talk about NCAAs at our goal meetings,\u201d Garcia said. \u201cWhat is so exciting is this program has so much rich tradition and all of my teammates have this respect for the Block \u2018M.\u2019 We all want to go to NCAAs and do something this program hasn\u2019t done before. The deep respect is really special. That is going to make our successes even greater.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Dan D&#8217;Addona.
