WENDER'S WORDS

"It was a very good first day of competition," head coach Mickey Wender said. "Our women performed extremely well and we qualified 16 of 25 in scoring positions, which helped set us up for later in the night. I was very proud of our winning 200 free relay squad as well as Serica Hallstead, who won the three-meter dive.
