POST RACE COMMENTS: 

"Really fun meet today, I want to thank SMC and USF for coming down. Hopefully we can turn this into a bigger event down the line for all three of us. I was most excited about Luke Johnson's race. He's been battling injuries for so long it was great having him back in the mix. The younger redshirts also performed really well and the stage is set for next week!" - Head Coach Felipe Montoro
