Head Coach Coley Stickels Said

"From the first race this morning to the last race tonight, we really got after it today and it showed. We challenged the team to get things rolling early and they did. To win two SEC titles and break four school records in one session is really something. I'm proud of Zane, Tyler, Jonny and Sam for defending 200 free relay title and then for Zane to come back and get the 50 title in a packed field, that was big time. The women came out fast, setting school records in the first three events of the night and scoring some important points. We've got momentum, now we just have to keep it going."
