Quotables from Head Coach Kelly Carter
"What a phenomenal week of competition! They really showed up for this one. It's always great when athletes commit to something and then get to see the benefits of it.  I think that everybody on our team has had a personal best at some point in the year, and that's just a testament to the kind of individuals that we have on this team. They have gone out there and tried to rewrite the school record books."
