Head Coach Lara Preacco had this to say following today's meet, "Well today they were tired and you could see that some, they worked very hard over our winter training period and that was awesome. I thought they did really well today given that. We need to focus in on the work that needs to get done so we can be prepared for the conference championship. With the work they have done I believe they will be ready, and if we continue to focus on our speed and get some rest here and there I think that we will be happy with the result."
