Straight from the Pool
"This was a great early season test for our team and I'm proud of the way our athletes competed on the road. UVA is a strong program and I felt like we matched their intensity and emotion throughout the two days.
"It was great to see Tazman start us off with a win on 3-meter and then we had three seniors –
Beata Nelson,
Megan Doty and Cam Tysoe – win key events, including Beata's nation-leading times in the 100 and 200 back.
"Matt Novinski is really developing into a strong freestyler, and watching freshman
Mikayla Seigal win the 200 fly was a real highlight for the team today. While we still have work to do, we will be better this season having experienced this competition now." – Head Coach
