HEAD COACH SERGIO LOPEZ MIRO
“We had some awesome performances. We had many finalists and podium finishes on the men’s and women’s side. We broke multiple school records and a few swimmers have already qualified for NCAA’s. It was a very exciting meet for us. We talk a lot about sustainable success, and we are creating that. We are right there. I am very happy with everyone. Youssef won MVP, which is awesome. We have our last chance meet next week and hopefully we can take a great group to NCAA’s.”
