On the Owls performance at the Bob Pollock Invitationalā¦
"We had a ton of people take a big step forward this weekend at Clemson. I'm proud of our young people that continue to stick to and trust our process. Huge Congrats to
Sarah Hendrick and
Caroline Timm for running national level marks in both the 800m and Mile, and the men's 4x400m sent us home setting a new school record. I'm especially proud of how happy our team is for one another and the pride they take in continuing to grow this program. We will only get stronger in the coming weeks!"
