"This is one of the more impressive weeks I have been a part of with this program," said DS Coach Ben Rickett. "We have had a couple of disappointing weeks leading up to this one where we hurt ourselves and this is how the team responded. They made today look very easy and it wasn't. We have a big week at Primm next week that we have to get ready for to end this difficult three-week stretch and I think we are ready for it."

The #3 Roadrunners will end their toughest stretch this season next week when they fly out to Primm Valley, Nev. for the Battle at Primm on March 19 & 20.
