TOP QUOTE
"It was good to get the first road meet experience and come away with a win. We made some changes from last week's lineup and I was pleased with what I saw. Bailey Hollier scored well in the aerial. We did perform better than last week but we're still not executing at the level I know we can get to. We were better this meet and look to get better each meet to peak at the right time. We will get back to work this week to improve even more." - Head coach Felecia Mulkey
