COACH'S QUOTE
"We had a day filled with strong performances — some were the best people had ever done, and some were indicative of good progress toward eclipsing bests as we prepare for America East," said head coach Matt Belfield. "Kayla was consistently good in the Long Jump today, making the final with several of her best jumps ever. MegAnne ran a top-10 all time UVM mark and rookie Izzy Fryer ran one of the best 3Ks ever for a first year Catamount.  Alex Beal, Liz Lembach and Laura O'Brien had big breakthroughs as well. Short week this week but looking forward to getting to compete at the Armory in NYC this Friday."
