QUOTING HEAD COACH JONATHAN HILL
"We are always excited to compete head-to-head. So, that's what's on most people's minds. We'll open up a few more people across a few more events and really show the balance that is the identity of this team. Most people got a good break in and are ready for the six-month push to Outdoor Championships."
