"There were great moments and some things to clean up and fix. I was disappointed to see some poor mistakes during a few of our races, but this is why we have these meets just outside of Conference. It gives us the opportunity to make the mistakes without the added pressure of a championship meet, learn from them, and move on so that we don't continue to make them. We are looking forward to getting back in the water tomorrow, shaking it out a bit, and completely shifting our focus to fully prepare for the last, and most exciting, part of the season," Young said.

The Eagles will race again at the South Atlantic Conference Championships beginning Wednesday, Feb. 8.
