QUOTE FROM COACH
Â
"What an exciting day of racing! The depth of speed across our conference is impressive. We want to thank the Pac-12 for a great race at a great venue, in particular, thanks to Tammy Newman for all her hard work.
Â
We really wanted to flip a few results in the 1V8 from Dexter Lake Invite to the Championship. We accomplished that goal and gained some speed in the process.
Â
The 2V8 raced an aggressive race and showed strong speed against an OSU 2V8 that has good results across other regions.
Â
The four showed great tenacity in their sprint and it showed in their result.
The 3V has been most impacted by our injuries and roster management these last two weeks. That result was not expected, and that group had some tough lessons today. Now is the time to pick ourselves, turn the page, and look to what's coming next."
