We are a really young team. We may have only gotten two All-Americans, but I think that the experience that they gathered here will carry all of them to the next level.

If anybody said coming in, Georgia was going to win this thing, they would have said no way. But they just got on a roll.

This is a great opportunity for Denise and Kelly. Both have worked extremely hard since they came to Arkansas and this is a reward for that hard work. I really believe that they have an opportunity to make the World Cross Country team and travel to Japan in April. Currently we are preparing for the SEC Indoor Championships and are training to be prepared for that meet, but this race couldn't come at a better time.

For Jodi to open up with that kind of mark is very encouraging. The height that she went out at is one that is almost a guarantee to go to the national championship and for her to be there at this time of the year is good news.

There's always been Native Americans in the area and the region and it's time that we have a place here in town. It's about bringing people of all different cultures together. It's about integration not segregation.

Everything at this level is a learning experience. Last year was no different.
