Hear from Coach Henry
"Proud of this team. We got better as the meet progressed. The team's belief in each other never waned throughout the electric meet. The diver's performance on the boards today fueled a momentum surge that the entire X Pool crowd could feel. I could think of no better way to send our seniors out in their last home meet. Looking forward to improving on the HYP performances at our championships."
