Be the Lobster
One of the perks of working Pete Casares’ swim camp is that each week he takes you to go get fresh Maine lobster. They’ve got those big tanks where you get to choose your crustacean. What you don’t do though is let your kids near the tank because the next thing you know they’ve given each lobster a name.
Now that lobster isn’t dinner. It’s a character from the Little Mermaid. The voice of today’s student-athlete is stronger than ever.
