QUOTING COACH PEDERSEN
"These three girls did a good job of swimming hard and ended their season well. First, congratulations to Kelly for completing her swimming career. She's been an integral piece of a smaller senior class and we thank her for all she's contributed to our program. On the other end, CC and Bailey handled the meet very well with some really good swims. They have a very bright future at JMU and I can't wait to see what lies ahead for them."
UP NEXT
JMU will compete in the Colonial Athletic Association Championship held Feb. 20-23 at the Christiansburg Aquatic Center.
