Quotes and Notes
On Day Two of the Towson Invitational, "The women were great all weekend and today Grace and the women's 4x100 really stood out."  

"The 4x1 really executed at a very high level in a very strong field and Grace was excellent in finishing 2nd." -Rider Associate Head Coach Brett Harvey 

On Day Two of the Colonial Relays, "We had a great day 2 at the Colonial Relays. Two Rider records in the 4x1500m relays highlighted the day." 

"The women ran outstanding to get the win. De la Torre Coca ran a great lead off leg to put us in the race. Greenfield and O'Neill ran really well in the middle. They ran solo in second place doing everything they could to keep us close to give Schein-Becker a chance. Teagan made up 80 meters and then kicked to the win. The women had a great weekend of racing. This was a big step forward for the program."-Rider Head Coach Bob Hamer
