FROM COACH MARCUS EVANS
"Aly had a great 5K breaking her record again. She deserves all the success she is having, and she is having a huge impact on our team with her constant positivity."
"Savannah had a great day with a season PR in the long jump and anchoring our 4x400. I'm glad to see her back at it after some injuries early in training."
"The team did a great job preparing for this meet. Our student-athletes are gaining more and more confidence, and it's great to see improvement in every area. I think we can surprise some people with what we do at OVCs."
"Keri Burmester also had a big PR. She has been relentless in training trying to maximize her last year of eligibility. We are proud of the legacy our fifth-year seniors are leaving for the next generation's Cougars."
SIUE's next event is the Ohio Valley Conference Championships. The three-day event begins May 13 in Charleston, Illinois.
