Post Meet Press:
"I think we as a team had a great showing today", said sophomore
Aidan Quee (Springfield, Mass.). "With it being the first meet back it's hard to tell how well individual workouts over break would transfer to meet day performances. However, we as a unit showed up and showed out, with a multitude of pr's and top 10 performances. Very proud of each and every one of us! #RollHawks."
