COACH'S QUOTE
"Certainly not the team placing we were hoping for both groups, but I saw seven men and seven women give as much as they had today," head coach Matt Belfield said. "Not uncommon to have a couple people be flat after an outstanding America East result. Jane and Andrew have been great leaders all the way through the season, and they were excellent again today. Steve and Owen finished up outstanding seasons, so pleased that they returned for their fifth years. And Sophie joined Jane as fifth-years making a big impact for the women as well. We are truly grateful that we have athletes that have such a positive experience with our team that they sacrifice to give it one more go-'round. Joe and I are very pleased with the season overall and look forward to a bright future with many committed returners."
