PIGG'S POINTS
"We have had a nice block of practice since returning Jan. 6. We have had time to get some things done without worrying about heading to a competition. Everyone is excited to start competing. South Carolina hosts great meets on a fabulous track so I'm sure it will be a good trip." -- Head coach Jeff Pigg
