"Good things do happen to good people."

Jeanette Bolden, who doubles as UCLA's track coach and head coach of the women's Olympic team, recalled watching Harper push herself to recover from knee surgery while a Bruin.

"It doesn't matter who people predict supposedly to win if you have faith and confidence in yourself. Dawn's always had a lot of confidence in herself," Bolden said. "She's just had a lot of ups and downs in her career.

"Good things do happen to good people."
