(On meet)
"Overall I felt we had a really good tri-meet. I was happy with how we competed. It was great to take on a strong Patriot League opponent in Boston University as well as an ACC foe in Boston College as our last meet before the conference championships in two and half weeks. We are excited to go get back in the pool and start the process of getting ready for the big meet as we are looking forward to the postseason and the conference championship at Bucknell."
