Coach's Comments
-
"We had a lot going on this week and I don't want to make excuses but I am so proud of how tough this team is. We had a meet two days ago kids got banged up at that meet and several sick today. They are just warriors"
-
"Obviously we are never happy if we aren't first, or in the 196 range, or both, but we really have to take a minute to realize how well we did under the circumstances."
-
"Anytime we come up against adversity they have this ability to step their game up. They came out of floor frustrated and they really attacked vault and bars so I was very pleased with the way they responded."
