We focused our better individuals in the relays to get some points, and that really helped us out. Our relay teams did very well.

That bumps the double points in the relays up more. You can score 18 points in a relay to what used to be 14.

Last year we beat them, but it came down to the last relay — this year shouldn't be as close. They have a couple of good swimmers, but we have more depth than last year, so we are expecting a win.

This is the meet where we really start gearing up the for the sectional. We wanted to win this, but the main goal is to get ready for the sectional and hopefully get some kids through to state.

We've never won the boys end of it, so that was a big focus for us. It's hard to sustain a good program when you don't have the proper facilities. So to see how good this team performed and the character of these kids, it's just wonderful.

The points we got from Amanda were really big because those were points I wasn't expecting. She ran a great race. I expected the 30 points from the field events and between nine and 12 points from the relays and we got nine, so we did about as well as I expected us to.
