QUOTEWORTHY
Head coach Jeff Pigg:
"It was a great night under the lights in downtown Atlanta. We competed well across the board. These kids are really turning up the intensity at the right time of year. It was a great meet for us with many PRs and wins.
"Eden Meyer set out to do it and she broke the 5000m record at UNF. She ran a very rough race. She competed well and maintained composure through a tough race. Audrey Carpenter ran a lifetime best in the steeplechase and was the top collegiate finisher in the field. Audrey competed well and continues to make nice progress in the event."
