From Coach Krolick
"
Evie Wild has got her second straight top 10 mark this season after today and is not far off her outdoor season finish last year. She is closing on that 32.91 second mark and she's definitely capable of taking a few more seconds off soon.
Trey Leggins did a great job tactically today and ran a very mature race for a freshman. He's doing everything right and I expect to see time continue to drop."
What's Next?
The Royals will have some athletes compete in the JDL Flat is Fast Invitational on Sunday January 21st in Winston Salem, NC starting at 9:45 A.M.
