Coach's Corner
"Couldn't have been happier with the way the meet played out. We had people managing the nerves of this being their first (college) meet, folks dealing with injuries and the inconsistency that can happen this early in the season. It was fun … they responded beautifully and I'm very proud of the entire team today!"-Head Diving Coach Chris Waters

Cadet's Corner
Minh Donnell on this weekend's meet:
"It was a great first home meet where all of our divers got to compete together. Not to mention our swimmers who gave us a great head start to the meet by crushing all their races. The energy at the pool was the best it's ever been, so our divers got to compete really well. We, as a team, are in a great place but moving forward we can start making more improvements to advance competition for our meet against Navy."

Isaac Newman's take on this weekend's meet:
"It was a great day to be at home competing. We have a very supportive group of divers and having the swimmers cheering added to our home field advantage. As the first home meet of the year, I can tell that the work we are all putting in, is paying off. Which puts us in a better spot for future meets."

What's Next
The Black Knights return to Crandall Pool to host Boston College on Friday, October 28, at 4:30 p.m.
