FROM THE POOL
"We knew heading into this that the Coast Guard had a slight advantage across the board in both quality and depth, and it played out that way. We had some good (event) wins today, just not enough. I hope with a bit of rest we bounce back and swim well vs TCNJ in a week." Head Coach Brian McLaughlin.
