Hear from Coach Grevers
"It's great to be back at a combined SEC Championships. Mizzou set the tone early with our energy, and even though we had some tough breaks today, the Tigers stuck to their process. It was great to see our divers score today and we are excited to see what the Tigers do in the pool tomorrow.
