Obviously we're going to be trying to do it again. They're running well.

We certainly wanted the pack to stay together. We wanted Heather to go for it. We thought she could stay with Kerri. We wanted our (second and third) girls to stay in front of Wilton's No. 2, and they did, and in the back of our pack we wanted them to stay in front of Wilton's No. 4, and they did. It was a real team effort. We put five in the top 10.

Leah did a heck of a job. She's been fighting a bug and she ran a really smart race. She's a very, very strong girl.

Not to be afraid of it. I think they were a little intimidated. It was our first mega-meet. And now these girls, most of them, have done Great American, they've gone to nationals (for indoor and outdoor track). I think they're better able to handle that kind of a meet.

I was a little concerned, but she responded beautifully.

Obviously we were hoping to win the 4x800 relay, but three of the four girls were fighting illnesses all week.

We're certainly aware of the rankings. It's a tough region. We're in there with some very tough schools, and it's subjective.

We've just got to go out and prove we can do it.

We did not have a good day. We certainly hope to do better. We've thought a lot about what we did last time and what we need to do this time.
