Donner's Debriefing

"The team seems to be jelling right now and I believe based on the quality of the field, we have a chance for a top 3-4 team finish, and if we happen to be on, we might be able to contend for a win. This is the last regular season meet prior to league championships, so there is a lot at stake for the middle part of our lineup that makes for our depth, so we will see who steps up. I do like where the team is at right now with their training and now we just need to execute."
