ACCORDING TO COACH LAWRENCE JOHNSON
"Today's competition was all about making a smooth transition into the outdoor season. We have been training exceedingly hard over the last two weeks, and we didn't back off our training for this competition. Most of our kids are sore and tired, however it's all about the months of May and June, the championship part of the season. Everything leading up to those months is just dress rehearsal.
UP NEXT:
The Matadors will come home to run in the Northridge Invitational on Saturday, March 16th.
