WORDS FROM INTERIM HEAD COACH BRIE GLOBIG
"I'm excited for us to travel to Atlanta for the Toyota U.S. Open. It is an upcoming Olympic year, which brings a heightened excitement for long course racing. To race with the elite swimmers in the world wil be great experience leading into the rest of the season."
