She ran a great race. That's probably worth five or six seconds (had the weather been better). She beat some really good girls, who I know she has never beat before. She had a really big final 300 (meters), came from behind to win.

You don't put a lot of credence into a meet in March. Nobody's ready; it's not that we don't care, but March is nothing. We weren't worried about the results. The kids all ran the meet relatively beat up.

It was a personal record by a few seconds. She competed really well. She beat a lot of girls from the Big East schools, which is important to us. She competed great to get third in that meet.

North Carolina is known for their women's middle-distance runners; they have a big reputation for that. So to beat the girl that she beat, at North Carolina, in the heat like that, with the credentials that girl had, was outstanding. She just ran a great race. She knows how to win.
