COACH’S QUOTE
“Saturday’s East Regional was a great stepping-stone race for us,” said Queens Director of Triathlon Sonni Dyer. “I was super-proud of the way we got out aggressively in the swim and how that set-up positioning five Royals in the lead bike-pack. Once you have all scorers in the lead-pack, it gives the squad a green-light to push the pace from the front and ultimately set up the run. As the only D1 program in the country to have four All-Region athletes, what’s most impressive is that the East Regional was a first for three of them. Saturday’s race was a big step forward in advance of the National Champs in November.”
