Coach's Corner
Head Coach
Adam Epstein said, "It was a great day for our program as both the men and women started the dual meet season with victories. We had some travel issues and arrived a little later than expected. However, with a condensed warm up and a little adversity, this team showed up! It was nice to see some of the freshmen get some much-needed experience, and that will bode well for the rest of the season. Coach Keith and I are very proud of how we swam today. We now turn our focus to Asbury and Cumberlands up in Kentucky. "

Up Next
