COACH'S QUOTE
"We generated a lot of really good performances today, highlighted by a bunch of all-time UVM top-10 marks," head coach Matt Belfield said. "Jane and Dillon both moved up the rankings in their qualifying marks in the mile and 1K, respectively. They both finished extremely fast while moving up through the field. Alex Siaton also had a great day with top-10 marks in both of his races. We're excited to go after some points tomorrow to end our indoor campaign on a high note."
