“We were very happy to come away with so many good results today,” head coach Kyle Clements said. “We just returned from a team training trip, and we have every excuse to swim slow, but our team is extremely resilient.”

“All of our men and women put in their best efforts, and we couldn’t have been more impressed,” Clements commented. “Our men and women understand that the end of the year results are our ultimate goal. Meets like these make us perform in uncomfortable situations and prepare us for our final swims of the season.”
