?The students excelled in competing together as a team and reached many individual milestones,? ACC Assistant Coach Roye said.

?I am excited to see what the season has in store. Each member has developed so much since week one?they have worked countless hours on achieving their goals athletically and academically.

?We will continue to grow as a program and develop the necessary skills to compete at the highest level. Looking forward to competing in our next competition in Bunker Hill, Illinois. Go Red Devils!?
