It was a great day for us. We beat a lot of ranked schools from Kentucky. Alex, obviously, ran an outstanding race. He is really coming on right now. Today was the most aggressive I've seen him run.

I think the Tennessee Lottery has really helped the Tennessee schools. A lot more than Kentucky. It's just given them a lot more opportunities and things and I think it's a good thing.

It was a good win for us over a good team from Northern Kentucky.

I'm sure if it was Kentucky, the Louisiana officers would be here helping us. I feel like we owe them that much,

All of us enjoyed making the trip to Kentucky. The players were able to see a different part of the country which was a really good experience for them. And there were some good teams represented. It was also interesting to see that there are different rules pertaining to high school basketball played in Kentucky as opposed to the rules for basketball in Texas.

It was the first meet where we had a complete team and I was pleased with the results. Kelsey just flat tore it up and just coasted the last 1,000 meters. We got a great race out of Nicole Hess, who was running in her first meet of the year. Sam Shepard also ran well. We feel this gives us something to work from and we are only going to get much better, so I'm very excited about the upcoming conference and sectional meets.
