On Today's Performance Overall …
"Overall it was a very positive day for both our men's and women's teams. We did a great job and now it's time to focus on our first CUSA championship meet! "
 
On the Men's Performance …
" I was really pleased with the men's performance! Collins and Brian continue to shine for us but the younger guys really picked things up compared to two weeks ago. We are looking forward to conference in two weeks.  I'm excited to see how this team continues to progress."
 
On the Women's Performance …
" Our women ran tough but some left a little out there. Emma Ferguson and Madison Seiler led the way and ran great races. We have some young talent on our roster in Miah Johnson and Natalie Tully who ran their best races of the season. Our older ladies are still working really hard and they will be better at conference. We have relied on them for many years and they have always performed well when it matters most. I'm excited for this group to keep progressing just like the men's team."
