"Congratulations to our seniors who really stepped up to the plate an had some phenomenal races today! We are walking away from today's meets with a lot of details that we will work on over the next few weeks to fine tune and get ready for the WAC Championship. If we want to win these meets, we have to win the close races and unfortunately we weren't able to get that done today."
