NOTES & QUOTES
"The quick turnaround competing twice in a three day period can be testing at this time of the year. It was a good measure of our ability to recover quickly and focus on the challenge of today. We were able to respond in a positive way showing toughness throughout the meet. The positive momentum we are building will benefit the group as we lead up to the MAAC Championships."
