QUOTABLES
"Excited for the race at WCU this Friday. This will be a good opportunity to end our season on a fast course and to see how much progression we've made throughout the season. We'll use this as a test to see what we need to further develop with our kids during the indoor and outdoor track season. There should be some good competition to get a good final test for our athletes." - Head Coach Jesse Norman
