I retired but Janet was still active duty \u2014 assigned as the commanding officer at the Toledo reserve center.<\/p>\n<p>We came back when Logan was going to be a freshman in high school. The school [Saint Francis De Sales High School] happened to have a really good swimming program and a water polo team. That serendipity put him back in the water with polo. He got involved with ODP [USA Water Polo&#8217;s Olympic Development Program} and just loved it.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>&#8211; After being on the move because of you and your wife\u2019s commitments to the Navy, you were now staying put.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>He went and played for <strong>Jim <\/strong><strong>Staresinic<\/strong> and <strong>Nicola Malezanov<\/strong> with the Pittsburgh Renegades and just fell in love with [polo].

[If] you look at it from my perspective, Logan did so much work in the off-season \u2014 this is what John <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/bucknell-mens-water-polo-head-coach-john-mcbride\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">always<\/a> alludes to. He went and lived out in California each of the previous three summers.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s another connection for you.

Alex of course is the great UCLA player and he will likely be the starting gold in the Olympics.

There&#8217;s some funny pictures of him as a freshman, like a bean pole. Then junior and senior year, he turned into what you see now.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>&#8211; Where Bucknell really hits the mark at this point is that there is that team unity.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>And it is all about that team and the way coach McBride has molded them.
