He is back! @j_lucca made a decision last fall to fully recommit himself and scratch retirement plans. Proud to say he worked for this one…and qualified for 2019 PanAms and 2019 Worlds. Maybe more importantly, at age 29, he is working to be better than ever! @uoflswimdive pic.twitter.com/nZq5DkbM0W

“we are treated as numbers of points in the classification & not as human beings”
I don’t get the system. Perhaps I never will. But ill always believe in the magic within the Para athlete. The work we do as athletes goes way beyond our sport. Shame we get jerked around so much. https://t.co/YoJvF8soF6
