Patrick Rossetto just<br />
finished his junior season<br />
on the Lincoln-Way East<br />
water polo team.<br />
How would you say<br />
the season went?<br />
It was a big success at<br />
the end for us. It wasn’t as<br />
far as we would have liked<br />
to go, obviously we had<br />
that heartbreaker in the<br />
[state] semifinals but going<br />
that far when we haven’t<br />
gone past the [state quarterfinals]<br />
was definitely a<br />
huge success for us.<br />
When did you start<br />
playing water polo?<br />
I started when I was 9,<br />
playing country club water<br />
polo. I slowly moved<br />
in to playing club, there’s<br />
a local club called LAW<br />
[Lincoln-Way Area Water<br />
Polo) that I got into around<br />
11. I have continued to<br />
play since.<br />
What have you<br />
learned from coach<br />
[Ryan] Lodes<br />
throughout your<br />
career?<br />
I’d say just to always<br />
have fun with it. Lodes<br />
does a really great job at<br />
making it feel like a family<br />
environment. It makes<br />
it easier showing up to a 5<br />
a.m. practice when you enjoy<br />
hanging out with your<br />
coach. He’s a fun guy.<br />
What’s been your<br />
favorite memory while<br />
playing water polo at<br />
LW East?<br />
Definitely last year and<br />
this year’s sectionals. Seeing<br />
and having a crowd to<br />
play for, all of our friends<br />
and family would show<br />
up for sectionals and that<br />
meant a lot to us.<br />
What’s been the best<br />
part of being a Lincoln-<br />
Way East athlete?<br />
Being with the guys,<br />
you grow so much with<br />
them it becomes more like<br />
a brotherhood. It just happens<br />
naturally from spending<br />
so much time with<br />
them, they’re always there<br />
for you, even outside of<br />
the pool. They are there for<br />
you with school and helping<br />
with other friendships.<br />
I’m not sure it can be said<br />
about other teams, but we<br />
are all really close friends.<br />
Who is your favorite<br />
athlete?<br />
Probably Tiger Woods.<br />
Seeing him be so dominant<br />
and then coming back<br />
from injury and being in<br />
the mix again. I admire<br />
that drive and determination.<br />
If you could meet<br />
anyone from history,<br />
who would it be?<br />
Teddy Roosevelt, I<br />
learned about him in Mr.<br />
Olsen’s history class. He’s<br />
just an interesting character,<br />
obviously being president<br />
and the many stories<br />
of things, he did before becoming<br />
president.<br />
His accomplishments<br />
definitely put other people’s<br />
to shame. Meeting<br />
him and asking about his<br />
STEVE MILLAR/22ND CENTURY<br />
MEDIA<br />
adventures in the wilderness<br />
would be super interesting.<br />
Any other favorite<br />
sports besides water<br />
polo?<br />
I used to be a really big<br />
volleyball player actually.<br />
They’re during the same<br />
season, so I had to make<br />
the choice and I chose<br />
water polo. I played a lot<br />
of volleyball before high<br />
school.<br />
What’s your favorite<br />
thing to do in your<br />
downtime?<br />
I like to read a lot. Usually<br />
historical books or adventure<br />
books like Harry<br />
Potter or Percy Jackson.<br />
I’ve spent a lot of time<br />
reading.<br />
Any goals for next<br />
season?<br />
I’d like to get back to<br />
state and recompete there.<br />
My big thing next year is<br />
winning sectionals. We<br />
have a four-year streak going<br />
now and I don’t want<br />
to lose that streak while<br />
the team is under my leadership.<br />
We’ll see what happens.<br />
