Quoting Head Coach Janelle Atkinson 
"I'm actually really impressed with the way the team handled themselves today. We're a much smaller team in size than Saint Peter's, but if you take out the relays we didn't have enough bodies for, we would have won by one point. The amount of heart these girls showed was incredible, and hopefully we can continue to build on that enthusiasm and drive. We're building a culture, that's one of the main things we've talked about. What we showed today was along the lines of where I know this program can be."
