FROM COACH PETERS

"WSU swam really well against a very strong opponent tonight," commented head coach Sean Peters.  "I know the score tells one story, but the story that I took from it was that we saw quite a bit of improvement from last week.  The Warriors continue to give it everything they have with training and performances.  Some highlight performances tonight were our women backstrokers with Ashlen, Jordan and Maddy, and seeing their improvements.  I also thought Haley Groteler made some big strides as well."

UP NEXT

WSU will travel to Ashland on Friday, Nov. 8th, for a 5:00 p.m. meet.
