A local sports reporter was covering a high school swim meet for the first time. During each of the races, he kept hearing a high-pitched squeal coming from somewhere in the natatorium, but he couldn't quite figure out where or from whom. He assumed it was an excited parent or a proud boyfriend or girlfriend, cheering one of the swimmers, but he kept hearing the same noise during every race.
After the meet, the reporter was interviewing a young man who had qualified for the state-level competition when he asked, "You don't happen to know whose parents were making that high-pitched squealing noise, do you?"
The young man laughed, "Oh that, no, that's not a parent. That's our coach! She gets real excited when we swim well and she starts to squeal. In fact, it's so loud we can hear her underwater. It's kinda cool because when we hear her, we know we're winning!"
Her sheep listen to her voice; they know her and they follow her.
