WENDER'S WORDS

"It was another productive day in Boston," head coach Mickey Wender said. "I was very pleased with our effort and performance, especially in regards to where we are in the training process. I was especially pleased with our win in the 800 free relay. It was a gutsy performance. Kevin Doo's come-from-behind win in the 100 fly was tough and inspiring. Hudson Kay performed well for us by winning again today. The men are in a dog fight against a very good Boston College team and it will all come down to tomorrow."
