COACH PRETRE'S COMMENTS

"It's been an incredible weekend for the Raiders! Even though our team is deep in a demanding training cycle and feeling the fatigue, our athletes continue to show remarkable grit, determination, and intelligence in the water. Our men delivered a very strong performance today, and our women showcased our impressive depth and potential. If we can stay healthy and keep building on this momentum, there's no limit to what this team can achieve!"
