COACHES CORNER
"I am happy with the way we raced today," said head coach Tony Marleneanu. "The good display from last week and the hard work we put in gave us the confidence we needed to perform well. It's great that we were able to get our first win today (on the women's side), but more importantly, the times that we are posting now are fast for this time of the season.  I am proud of the way raced, and I am excited about our championship style meet in November."
