The selection process continued at the Ranch with the Selection Camp which didn't go as well as Courtney hoped but still landed her a place on the 2004 Olympic Team. She talks about the selection camp and how hard it was to balance her joy of being chosen with the heart ache she felt for the girls left behind. As she put it " It felt like a Soap Opera".
