FROM THE POOL DECK
"It was an exciting, high-energy meet today, to say the least. I couldn't be happier for our women, and I thought our men swam well, especially SPENSER DUBOIS. This is exactly what my Assistant Coach Maria Vira and I were looking for in an end-of-the-year dual meet." – Head Coach Brian McLaughlin.
