QUOTING COACH ORNER

"Today was a successful meet at Miami (Ohio) for the RedHawk Invitational. We broke a school record, won three events and set five personal best marks on the track. We were expected to get hit with thunderstorms and rain all day but ended up having hot and sunny conditions. I'm not sure we were completely prepared for the heat today but it was good to get in one really hot track meet before BIG EAST in two weeks."
