TOP QUOTE
"I felt like our girls really executed well today. We had had a couple of misses at the Oregon meet early in the first half that had set us back a couple points. Today we were able to hang on to the lead from the start and consistently hit everything throughout the meet. Believe it or not, we still have room for improvement, and I'm proud of these girls for staying focused. It can be difficult keeping your focus going into the end with the lead. We are looking forward to the national championships where we will peak."
