Distance Coach Halle McClintock
"I am very excited for us to have another opportunity to compete this weekend at a course our athletes are very familiar with. The group as a whole is ready to make a big jump in their performances and this is a great opportunity to do so now that we have some more experience under our belt. We have put in a lot of great training over the past two weeks and I look forward to seeing how we can improve from our last time out!"
