WENDER'S WORDS
"UConn is a great program," head coach Mickey Wender said. "They are well-coached and balanced. We are excited about the opportunity to rekindle our long standing series with them after several years off. Our team is ready to race and looking forward to the challenge. We have been training very hard and we are looking forward to getting on the road again and being tested. It's especially exciting for our women who have had a few weeks without a meet. They are ready to race and compete. This will be a fun month with the Terrier Invitational coming up next week and the star match happening in 28 days."
