QUOTES FROM THE SEAWOLVES
"Grace had a tremendous run, got involved early, and fought hard all the way to gain a top-three finish," head coach Andy Ronan said. "As a team, we just did not get enough good running done in the middle of the race to finish among the top three teams, so overall, I would say it was a solid performance."
