COACH'S QUOTE
"Pretty good tune up today. A couple more people themselves into the bus for America East and many others sharpened up nicely," said head coach
Matt Belfield. "Great to see
Henry Miller compete and set some lifetime bests as he gets ready for the Heptathlon at AEC. Kenny Morrissey and
Megan Quade also stood out in the willingness to take out their respective races aggressively and make it go for all their teammates. This team is pretty cohesive and I very much appreciate how they take care of each other. It's going to be a gratifying championship season for the athletes and us coaches."
