Quotes and Notes
"We had an incredible Sunday at the ECAC IC4A Championships. The women were outstanding and they really rose to the challenge today. This is a really important meet for our program and to see the athletes who work so hard have incredible moments is really gratifying as a coach. We need to take this momentum and carry it forward to the outdoor season."
 
"It was so exciting watching Teagan pull away for the victory. She made such a strong move with 600 meters to go that broke the race wide open and she was able to carry it to the end. She has had an amazing championship season. She is on a whole new level right now. We do not get many ECAC Champions so this is definitely a special moment  for the team and Teagan. She is a very special athlete and she was on full display today." 
 
"Allie had a great meet to tie her own Rider record to finish 4th overall. She has been jumping really well the last few weeks. Things have finally come together for her during the championship season." 
 
"The women ran great in the distance medley today. Dyani and Lydia did a great job of stepping up and keeping us in it to give Teagan a chance at the end. Dyani has come a long way over the last few weeks to make a big impact for the team." -Rider Head Coach Bob Hamer

-Schein-Becker, Riches, Glasco, Greenfield, Bigelow, and Wallace earned All-East accolades after their performances on Sunday.
