From the Locker Room
"While today was not our day, this team stayed unified and stayed in the meet until the end. I am so proud of them for never giving up and finishing strong on the vault. We will use this as a learning opportunity as we begin to think about our planning for next year. I want to thank our seniors for doing such an amazing job creating a truly authentic bond within the entire team. They leave this legacy for our program, and it will be something we will build upon as we work to get our routines ready for next season." – Kerrie Turner, BGSU head coach
