Quotables
"This was an amazing experience, and I'm so proud of how everyone swam. This was a great start to the season."
           - Sophomore Catherine Allen –
"Being a part of the second annual Collegiate Open Water Championship has been an excellent opportunity for these ladies. Although a 5K is much longer than anything we race in competition, the training will benefit them for the 2017-18 season. I'm proud of the effort I saw from the team. They did a great job."
           - Head Coach Elizabeth Lykins -
What's Next
On Sept. 30, the Bulldogs will host an instrasquad meet (blue vs. white) as the 26-person team will race against one another inside of the Justice Center Pool. The meet is set to begin at 11 a.m.
