Coach's Quotes – Mark Kretzer

• "It is always challenging starting off our winter training right away with a competition, however, it can really help us as a team see where many of us are at, and provide some motivation for the important weeks of training we have in store for us in January." 
• "Today, the team really surprised me with some of the times posted. On the Women's side, freshman Miranda Yeats and Sky Labonte swam some really nice times, and sophomore Rachel Valentine continues to be the backbone of the women's team with her solid breaststroke performances."
• "On the men's side, sophomore Jhonny Perez provided much needed wins in both the 100 freestyle and butterfly events, while freshman Guillem Perez posted great swims in both breaststroke events."
• "I am really happy to come away with a win on the men's side, as Fairfield has an increasingly competitive team that pushed our men to the very end today."
• "Our women faced some incredibly tough competition today but they stayed tough and are excited to get back to some hard training and prepare for the MAAC Championships coming very soon in just 6 weeks."
