I think they're really proud of their effort today. It was really a great second effort coming off of yesterday. We had to make sure our relays were ready and that they weren't holding anything back, and we got great swims out of all those relays.

Basically, we have been practicing this whole semester for nothing. One incident has caused us to have to rework everything. We are going back to middle school stuff.

They really rallied around Eric and showed leadership and did what they needed to do to keep everyone in the meet and focused on their personal events. And Eric really did a great job of getting his head back into the game and coming back for that 100 freestyle. That's a really hard thing for a senior to go through.

I'm super proud of the boys. We had awesome swims today, spectacular swims actually. We moved up places in some events and everybody just did excellent. It was a really, really fun day.

We had awesome, awesome swims today. We had best times for just about everybody. We looked really great in that respect and we have an opportunity to earn some more points tomorrow, but we have to stay where we are or move ahead.
