Anson Dorrance Q&A: UNC legend discusses team-building, new edition of his book
Posted Jun 13, 2019
Anson Dorrance: "You don’t develop in a recreational environment. You develop when someone’s pushing you. You develop psychological strength when you compete, and you develop a standard for your own excellence if someone else is trying to compete against you. That’s the environment we wanted to structure, and that’s what separates our culture."
