From the Paper:

"The drive among athletes to win at all costs pushes them to take risks with their health by using what are known as performance enhancing drugs. There are many categories of performance enhancing drugs including steroids, growth hormone stimulants, pain killers, and diuretics -- anything the athlete believes will give them the winning edge. Motivation ranges from gaining college scholarships to high-paying spots on professional teams or becoming an Olympic gold medalist. No level of sports is immune to this problem."
