QUOTES FROM THE SEAWOLVES
"Not the result we were hoping for tonight, but when you step on this stage, you need to be firing on all cylinders. Unfortunately, that didn't happen for Collin tonight," head coach Andy Ronan noted. "The goal was to make it to the 2nd round on Friday, but it didn't happen. However, he gave his best effort in the attempt to get there. The season comes to an end after a return trip to the NCAA's first round, retaining his Conference title and improving on his school record for the 1500. So, plenty of positives from the season to head into the summer with."
