Quote From Coach
 
  • "We had several lifetime bests to start off the evening session. The momentum carried everyone going into the 200 IM with James (Conable) throwing down a new lifetime best, which was also a MAAC and school record. The old adage "If you have a lane, you have a chance" played as we moved up some places in the 50 free. Our 200 free relay was just off the school record, so it was a great way to end the evening. Tomorrow is a strong day for us, but as we've seen so far, this MAAC meet is anyones race."
Head Coach, Anthony Randall
