NOTES & QUOTES 
"Overall we were really pleased with the team and the effort they gave today. This time of year can sometimes be a little tricky with the conference championships on the horizon and our kids are feeling a little sore and tired. The main thing I look for in our athletes is that they continue to race and battle to overcome those obstacles and I thought we did that today. It was a good win for the men and I think the women stepped up against a high-caliber team and performed well. I also want to thank our seniors who we honored today for their hard work and dedication in helping bring the program to the level it is at today."
