Coach's Corner - Comments from Cortland Head Coach Sulekha Modi Zaug:

Scores were tight tonight and some mistakes were made. We spoke a lot about how this is the toughest week of the year with three meets, mentally and physically. We will be back in the gym tomorrow to clean up details and work on the little things to get ready for a strong showing at our back to back home meets. There's nothing like a home crowd to build momentum into the end of season!
