QUOTABLE

"The Chula Vista Invitational is an early preview of our conference championship a month from now in mid-May. We will see Gonzaga, UCSD, and USD along with Marietta this weekend and this will provide us with an indication on how things are stacking up for the two AQ spots that are earned out of the Western Sprints Championship. This will be our third full weekend of racing in a row so we should be ready to go. The guys have faced some very good crews thus far and we know the crews we will see this weekend will provide us with another round of competitive racing as we move into the championship portion of our season over the next few weeks."
