Still no news on the status of Gary Taylor, the head coach of Cavalier Aquatics, the Piedmont Family YMCA competitive swim team, and an assistant coach with UVA Swimming, who is currently serving a two-year probation handed down by the U.S. Center for SafeSport. AFP was the first to report on the investigation that concluded with Taylor admitting to emotional misconduct while coaching swimmers from 2015 to 2022 at North Carolina State, Auburn and Cavalier Aquatics. On the podcast, I report on what we know about the case, and the silence from UVA Athletics and the local YMCA.

With Courtney still working hard, André welcomes Sylvs (Shea Butter FC) to the pod!We start by reviewing the weekend's Women's Champions League (UWCL) matchups. We look at what went wrong for Arsenal, and discuss why Lyon's frontline is the best in the world. Then we begrudgingly discuss Chelsea's 4-1 loss to Barcelona. Sonia Bompastor got on our nerves, and we talk about why, and exactly how.Then we preview the second legs before switching focus to discuss the NWSL overall. Is the sudden formation of a big 4 (erm, 3) good or bad for the league? What does a successful team build look like? Does a salary cap really lead to parity? Plus how to instantly tell whether a rookie talent has a great chance at becoming great.After that, it's the return of Heated & Hyped. We're both frustrated by the NWSL and SafeSport, but end on a high note with the return of Big Fish and the WNBA regular season getting closer.Please subscribe, rate and review.

In the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, when it was clear that the 2020 rowing season was in jeopardy, we started brainstorming. We were just two masters rowers and coaches who wanted to celebrate the expansive array of rowers, coaches, and coxswains and savor real-life experience from launch to cox seat at every level.  We launched Steady State Network in September 2020 with one goal: reframe the popular, yet limited narrative about rowing culture by creating a more inclusive and better represented rowing community.  On September 22, 2020 with very little audio production experience, but plenty of big ideas and lots of opinions, we dropped episode 1 of Steady State Podcast and wondered: will anyone notice?

In 2017, the Larry Nassar scandal rocked the Olympic community. Hundreds of allegations of sexual abuse against the former USA Gymnastics doctor underscored how vulnerable athletes are — particularly when they're minors. That year, Congress and the U.S. Olympic Committee had a solution.The U.S. Center for SafeSport was founded to investigate and respond to allegations of sexual abuse and misconduct. The goal was for predators like Larry Nassar to never harm young athletes again.Now, seven years later, SafeSport is facing scrutiny of its own — over whether it's made good on that promise.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.Email us at considerthis@npr.org.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

With a high-profile year that includes not only the Olympics but the World Aquatics championships that recently started in Qatar and a host of national level meets around the country, we caught up with Tim recently to discuss how USA Swimming places events around the United States, anticipation for this year's Olympic Trials at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis and much more.

Mary Dukes: An Evolution from Owner to Professional to Rep to Judge Host Laura Reeves is joined by Mary Dukes, legendary Whippet breeder, professional handler, AKC Executive Field Representative and now judge. [caption id="attachment_12711" align="alignleft" width="400"] A 1991 advertisement for Dukes' handling services.[/caption] Dukes has spent a lifetime involved in working with animals. From showing horses to training elephants to showing dogs. Her work with the zoo animals instilled in her an absolute dedication to animal husbandry. NO Dirty Dogs “There are no shortcuts in animal care. Period,” Dukes said. “In zoo animals, you have to be even more on top of it because wild animals don't have a tell that they're sick. In the wild, any tell that they are sick or injured is going to make them dead. So they are really good at masking that. If you are sloppy or dirty or messy there is no room for you in the animal business. “I'll put this on blast right now, if someone walks into my ring with a dirty dog, we're going to have a problem. There is no excuse to show a dirty dog. I won't hold it against the dog, but the handler might get an earful.” AKC Registered Handler Program Dukes was an early member of the AKC Registered Handler Program. As a rep, Dukes was a coordinator of the RHP. She joined RHP because they demanded insurance, inspections, so “I wanted to put my money where my mouth was.” RHP is not a guarantee the handler is going to win with your dog, Dukes said. “The whole point of the program is so the people have a place to start looking where we had done some of the ground work for you. You know they (they handlers) are insured. You know their vehicle is inspected for safety and cleanliness. You know their kennel has been inspected by AKC kennel inspectors. You know they've signed a code of ethics. “RHP members have to have a contract. They have to bill in a timely fashion. The bill has to be itemized. A lot of the trouble you see, most of it is because the expectations weren't clear. If you have a contract, it's [caption id="attachment_12710" align="alignright" width="392"] Dukes is still actively involved with horses. Her vacations frequently involve riding in exotic locales.[/caption] right there in black and white. Safe Sport “One of the newest requirements is SafeSport. All RHP members have to take the training as a condition of membership. “Safe Sport is a congressionally mandated program for every Olympic sport. “There's been a lot of abuses in every sport. Basically, Safe Sport is making you aware of what to look for. If you see a situation that you suspect might be something, it gives you tools. Because we aren't an Olympic sport, we don't have access to the mechanics of the national organization. “It automatically makes everyone (who's had the training) mandatory reporters. If you put it out in the open more, it's harder for someone to creep around. I would like to see it spread out to judges, especially juniors judges.” Join us next week for part two of this fantastic conversation. Learn what Dukes is looking for in a dog and hear about her fantasy Best in Show lineup.

Does your gym have a pro-fueling culture? What does that even look like? Are gymnastics clubs responsible for providing nutrition education to their gymnasts? Should the coaches or owners be the ones teaching gymnasts about nutrition or should they bring in an expert? Or should the topic be avoided completely and parents and athletes seek out information and support on their own?I believe there are plenty of things coaches can say and do regarding nutrition to help their gymnasts. Positive statements that focus on adequacy are always welcomed. It's when the advice gets "prescriptive" (the coach offers to write a meal plan) or focused on body comments (negative OR positive) that the waters get a little murky. This is when bringing in an expert can be so clutch. When coaches and owners understand the value and importance of bringing in a qualified expert, they enhance what they're already doing in the gym. A pro-fueling culture for your gymnasts will make them more coachable, more resilient, and repair and recover better. Coaches are so influential. They are one of the most important adults in a gymnast's life. The club where these athletes train is also an influential environment. With them spending 20+ hours a week within those walls, we want to do everything in our power to ensure it's a pro-fueling culture for our gymnasts. In this episode you'll hear: What the coach's scope of practice is when it comes to fueling and nutrition education for gymnasts  How to support gymnasts' nutrition as a coach or owner without crossing lines, boundaries, or SafeSport.What happens when you lift and elevate a pro-fueling culture in gymnastics and take a well-rounded approach in your gym.  Links & Resources Team Talk Series inquiries for coaches and ownersThe Balanced Gymnast®  Program for level 5-10 female gymnasts Blog: How Coaches Can Talk to Their Gymnasts About Nutrition Connect with Christina on Instagram @the.gymnast.nutritionist or support@christinaandersonrdn.com  

On this week's 51%, we speak with long-distance runner and two-time Olympian Kara Goucher about her daring new memoir, The Longest Race: Inside the Secret World of Abuse, Doping, and Deception on Nike's Elite Running Team. A former member of Nike's fallen Oregon Project, Goucher sheds light on the toxic culture and predatory leadership she says she faced from the team's disgraced running coach, Alberto Salazar. Salazar was banned from the sport for life in 2021 following a sexual misconduct investigation by the U.S. Center for SafeSport. In her new memoir, Goucher publicly identifies herself as the woman behind those allegations for the first time. Guest: Kara Goucher, two-time Olympian and author of The Longest Race: Inside the Secret World of Abuse, Doping, and Deception on Nike's Elite Running Team 51% is a national production of WAMC Northeast Public Radio in Albany, New York. Our host is Jesse King, our associate producer is Jody Cowan, our executive producer is Dr. Alan Chartock, and our theme is “Lolita” by the Albany-based artist Girl Blue.

Liberty AC is the oldest all women's track club in the country, celebrating its 75th anniversary this year. I speak to president of the board Viki Bok and official- unofficial team historian Alda Cossi (both women are competitive members of the masters running scene). Liberty has run through the gauntlet of sea changes in society via womens sport: It began as a new england sports club for young boys, and soon also became an opportunity for girls in sport when there were none-as schools did not offer this to girls in the 50s. During the 60's and 70's they had women athletes from many events in track and field competing for them and some went on to become Olympians and National Team Members and Champions like sprinters Betty Selman and Kathy Lawson to name a few. On the distance side of things, women like Darlene Beckford, Lynn Jennings and Joan Samuelson came through the program, and eventually professional contracts came into the picture to offer more support. (We didn't talk about it as I wasn't sure who else had been traumatized by this but one of the eras of coaching in the club was that of John Babbington-who has recently been named as a serial abuser of his young athletes, which is extremely upsetting and a sadly not unheard of piece of the womens sport landscape . Currently, athletes and supporters are pushing for prevention and better protected against this.) Their website statement: “Liberty is a community of women committed to inclusive athleticism, compassion, and fairness. We are deeply disturbed to learn of the behavior that led to SafeSport's investigation and findings of sexual misconduct by John Babington. We acknowledge the extraordinary strength it takes to share the pain associated with sexual misconduct, including assault. Liberty's current board and membership want Lynn Jennings, Darlene Beckford Pearson, and others who suffered similar abuse to know that we stand with them and will do whatever we can to support their healing and justice.”   “today-Liberty is mostly adult women actively engaged in career and community in addition to being dedicated runners” The club is a hub for masters women athletes -some of which only tried competitive running once reaching this age. The fulfillment, community and healthy habits cultivated in the group are a benefit to women of all abilities and show you don't become invisible or have to give up parts of your life when you hit a certain age. 

The 2023 indoor track season came to a close with the NCAA Championships (and the high school champs) in Albuquerque and Rojo and Jon were on hand to analyze Katelyn Tuohy's greatness and break it all down. Road action heated up with $250k on the line in Nagoya, and Almaz Ayana and Sara Hall in action in Portugal. Kara Goucher comes forward to say Alberto Salazar sexually assaulted her and she is the one who got him banned via SafeSport. *Her new book is here Pioness Dick Fosbury has died and is Matthew Centrowitz on the way back?

The Russia Situation The FIG has now followed the IOC's "recommendation" and banned all athletes, coaches, and judges from Russia and Belarus from competition until further notice. The ban does not extend to members of the Executive Committee or Technical Committees. We discuss the issues with that. At Doha, Russian gymnast Ivan Kuliak wore a tape Z on his chest on the medal stand alongside Ukrainian PB champion Ilia Kovtun.
