QUOTES FROM THE SEAWOLVES
"From an overall perspective I feel that the Men's team did very well over the two days. The Women's group were not as competitive even though we did have some quality individual performances. We have work to do with both groups if we want to be a top tier program in this conference on a regular basis. Danella had a good two days over the hurdles, placing sixth in the final. Grace battled her way to fourth place in the 3000m. Over the course of the two days, we had some other competitive performances that just came up short of making the finals and scoring," said head coach
Andy Ronan.
