POST MEET QUOTE
Women's Swimming & Diving Assistant Coach Caroline Maxvill Stanek on the team's performance ...
The women stepped up on the road today. We got some great wins and we also got our hand on the wall in some battles for second through fifth for those points. Winning on the road against two good teams puts us in a good spot to approach the next set of meets. We still have some details to clean up, but it was a ton of fun to see them step up, set the tone and race.
