QUOTING HEAD COACH DANE PEDERSEN
"Today was a great end to our invite. Madison had a great swim and best time in the mile. Lindsay and Jillian also had best times in the 100 freestyle. Overall this was a great meet and we are looking forwards to the CAA's"

"I also want to take a moment to recognize seniors Lindsay Bosek and Ashley Clark who concluded their careers as Duke Dogs. I cannot express in words everything they have given and sacrificed for this team and I am incredibly grateful."
