COACH NIC HUFFMAN'S COMMENTS
We had a lot of good things going on. There are many things we need to fix and get consistent with, but I was pumped to see how many athletes were putting their events together and competing at a higher level. Their hard work and focus in practice have been paying off and their confidence level is rising. We are looking better each week, and with such a young team, that is what I want to see right now. I'm excited to see what we do for the home crowd next week!
