QUOTES OF THE DAY
Football coach Robbie Caldwell on his future with the team and if Wake Forest will be his last game:

“I sure don’t know. I have no idea, but I’m just going to keep working, going to work on things I can control. If it is my last game I would be sad because I’ve enjoyed my time here at Vanderbilt. Hopefully it won’t be but if it is I understand. This is the life of a football coach, unfortunately. We coach from one season to the next and we’ll see where we go from there.”
Cross Country Steve Keith on Jordan White’s performance (112th out of 255 runners) at the NCAA Championships:

“Jordan ran a really solid race and I know she’s happy with it. We had a goal of top 100 and she was right there. In a race with this many people, 10 seconds can be the difference of 25 places.”
“This was a great first experience for her. She definitely wants to get back here with the team and lead two or three girls with her in the top 100. We’ll use this race as a building block for next season.”
