"It lets us see where they're at with training over the past month, and to practice the format of dual meets heading into October. We've had a real productive couple of weeks and I know they're anxious to race. It's also a good chance to practice being supportive as a team in a meet environment. We're expecting some gritty races and high-spirited energy."
