Curtis Lovelace: Feeling No Pressure
Before he could crawl or walk
– or even sit up – Curtis Lovelace was in
the water. He swam his first 25-yard length of the pool
without anyone's help by the time he was 4, and by the
age of eight, he started competing year-round for a
local swim club in Old Hickory, Tenn. Despite his promise,
Larry Lovelace, Curtis' dad, never pressured his son
to be the best.

Goss, Katrina Keirns, Annie Killian, Kyra Logan, Chase Lovelace,
Allison Maher and Grace Anne Sanderson. We received numerous
