QUOTABLE

"We are looking forward to having Stanford on Lexington Reservoir again this year. We had a great fall training block and the team has really embraced this winter training season despite the cold and dark mornings. We have a lot of experience on this team and our freshmen and transfers have added a lot of energy and improved our overall depth. Having this scrimmage on the calendar has been an important focal point for us and to have a quality opponent on an almost full Lexington Reservoir is a great way to start the racing season."
