QUOTABLE-
"You never like to give up a win of course, but I was pretty pleased with how we raced today. The team's energy and focus were on point, evidenced by some nice wins in critical events, and also by our ability to routinely score three swimmers in events. We had some holes for sure, and we'll need to patch those up for tomorrow."
- HEAD COACH BEN LOORZ
