The mens 4x100m continues to get a little better each time out. Aspen Jolly hit a PR in vault. He's the SAC leader right now. Several good results from our men's distance runners as well.
Plenty of bright spots. We will send a small group to Tabor a college next Saturday. Then it's time for conference the week after."
