INSIDE THE HUDDLE
- " I was very happy to see our 4x200 get the five year old school record and several great performances by our ladies. We have had some sickness go through our team so we were not at full strength and to finish 3rd as a team was a pleasant surprise. Big things are coming for our ladies!!!" - Head Coach Josh Colvin
