Coach Anderson's Thoughts
"We had a really good meet this weekend," head coach Darryl Anderson said. "We had a lot of seasonal bests, a lot of personal bests and a school record. All in all, I thought we had a really good day. Everybody's making progress despite the elemental adversity that we're dealing with as far as weather. We're just going to keep moving forward. We have 10 days until the Big 12 Championships and then we have to get ready for the NCAA Championships."
