"We had a great showing at Nationals this year," said Head Coach Ben Campbell. "Though our final day left more to be desired for all of our teams, our consistent numbers throughout the tournament helped place our men's teams in the top 20 in their divisions, and the women's team in 22
nd. While we didn't have any podium finishes, we had a good time and certainly grew from this experience. Our women's team gained a lot of experience and knowledge of the game and are hungry to improve for next season."
The Highlanders will compete in their final event of the season on May 3 in the WNY Conference Finals in Rochester hosted by RIT.
