Quoting the Coaches
Swimming
"Great job coming up north against Wisconsin and coming out with two wins," said head coach Braden Holloway. "I'm proud of our group for keeping the energy up on the second day; it's a lot harder to do when your having to get up early and back to work but they know both teams are dealing with it. We brought some good energy this morning and got things moving. The divers did a great job today on the boards and hats off to Madeline Kline for fighting back and getting a win today. It was a gutsy performance by Maddy and overall the divers did a solid job.
On the swimming side of things we continue to have new people rise and step up. One area that I was really happy with was our women's 400 IM'ers; the strength and depth we showed in that event today made me feel really good about where we are and what we're able to do. Some of the youth really stepped up. Julia Poole and Kathleen Moore really had a big day on the freshmen side of things; Elise Haan had a big swim in the 200 backstroke going against one of the nation's best and again Ky-lee Perry steps up on the block and is getting more comfortable and learning how to race the way she wants to at the end of the year and executing it. Ky-lee had a big day. Overall, our women had some pretty great results for us and we had a few people back this meet that we didn't have last time. We added Krista Duffield to the fold and got her season off to a good start.
As far as the men are concerned, we would have liked to have been a little bit better in some areas today but we did have some tough performances. Our backstrokers were pretty solid today; that crew with breaststroke moving up. Obviously we're pretty deep with our sprinters this year and it's great we've been able to move people around. Jacob Molacek, Giovanni Izzo; getting them a bunch of stroke races this weekend was key to where we're going to go with those guys. They've got many options so we've got to continue to figure out what's the best option with what events they're going to end up doing. Anton Ipsen was a stud today; big 500 freestyle win and a 400 IM win. I think that was pretty big for our program and for him. He doesn't get that many 400 IMs during the year.Â
We traveled up here and had a long day Thursday now we've got to get back to work. The guys have two weeks before they race again; the ladies have a short week so we need to have a good, fun part of the week but we also need to learn. We need to watch video and keep working on making adjustments. Overall, a good win for us."
 Diving
"I think we had a very good day today on the boards; the women on the one-meter and the men on three," said diving coach Yahya Radman. "Starting off with the women's one-meter, Madeline came to play today. She came out swinging and gave a very solid effort; obviously there are some things we need to work on but she did enough to get the win. Now we go back to Raleigh prepare for the next skillset to set us up for the next part of the season.
Â
The men are doing a lot better physically and mentally. James finished second while doing a very big dive for the first time in competition. I'm very happy with the direction he's going and it's going to set us up nicely for zones and ACC's. We'll try it again when Texas comes to town"
