She will assist with travel, coordinating team-building activities, observing swimmers' academic progress and team nutrition, in addition to on-deck responsibilities.

• Scott Jurek of Seattle won the Hardrock Hundred Mile Endurance run in 26 hours, 8 minutes, on Saturday in Silverton, Colo. Jurek's time set a course record.
