FROM COACH PETERS

"Well, I am pretty happy that we got this one in today. We had to get pretty creative with our line-up, but the Warriors responded as Warriors do, they came and brought it. There were a lot of great swims and dives from all the programs today, and overall, I know we can and will get better, but sure glad we got this one in today. Some of our highlight performances came from Jordan Fox, Julia Brunner, Jia Yi Koh, and the divers Mikaela Senkus and Marissa Woida (Lincoln Park, Mich. / Wyandotte Roosevelt)."

UP NEXT

The Warriors will compete again in Marquette, Mich. on Nov. 5-6 against Northern Michigan. The meet is set for 5 PM on Nov. 5 and 10 AM on Nov. 6.
