From the Locker Room
"I am very excited for the team to earn a season high [score] for the team tonight. You could really see them put all four events together, which is what we have been talking about. You could see the confidence building through the whole meet. It didn't take any one person but the whole team to put this together. What a way to finish in Anderson Arena the home portion of our 2022 schedule. Our seniors, I am very proud of them and excited to build on this for next week." – Kerrie Turner, head coach
