Coach Sergio Borjas comments:

“Definitely wasn’t the best day for our girls. We struggled to compete in the high winds and definitely left points out there. not the way we hoped to end our regular season, but I know the girls will keep their spirits/heads up in order to compete this weekend at regionals. We don’t always get the results we want l, but we’ll keep working until we do.”
