On his over thoughts on the team’s performance today…
‘We call the last day Gator Day because we finish strong and today was no exception. The men came through by both making the A final on platform. They showed a lot of heart bouncing back from disappointment yesterday. I’m very proud of them both. I know they will only improve from here.”
What’s Next
