COACH NATHAN MANLEY’S COMMENTS

I thought the men and women persevered through some less than ideal circumstances this week and made good use of our last competition before HCACs. This team has been willing to take on challenges all year, stepping into new events and roles with a team-first attitude. There has been a lot of growth these past few months and I think that bodes well for conference and for the years to come.
