"This weekend allows us to be one step closer to peaking most of the athletes at ACC. We are fired up about the overall team's progress in the last month. " – Director of Track & Field and Cross Country John Hayes
"As we reach the halfway point of the season, we witnessed a plethora of great performances across various events. While there are certain areas that require improvement and refinement, I am genuinely pleased with the collective progress of our team. Although we left some points on the table in the pentathlon, both our ladies achieved personal bests in the 800 meters. For our long jumpers, we encountered a few big marginal fouls. Nevertheless, I am confident that we will sharpen things up and execute flawlessly when it truly matters, as we draw closer to the championship season." - Assistant coach Ryan Grinnell
"It was a good start to the weekend, Kiky had a seasons best, Jacob got another win, and Bella was consistent with her performance. We are looking forward to shot put tomorrow. " - Associate head coach Collin Post
