David Marsh Last Quotations

Today it feels really good, like a relief. It is such an intense meet from top to bottom coming off last week and jumping into the fire this week.

That was thrilling, what a way to finish. That was the best last day we've ever had in Auburn swimming, especially from where we came from. We came alive this morning. We had the performances tonight, one after another, and that's what we needed. They knew how hard they worked this year and the passion that Dorsey Tierney-Walker has put into this team, and the rest of the staff, made a difference.

When half our team wasn't here last year, it didn't feel as special as this year does. We didn't feel right without everybody. We're a connected team. We're Auburn people.

Every championship is different for us. This men's team in particular has come from everywhere and it took all year to bring this team together. The last two months I saw synergy happening within our team and you have to have that at this meet to be successful. I am very proud of how our men stepped up together and we are excited to return another NCAA title home to Auburn University.

That's the best last day we've ever had in Auburn swimming. They just came alive this morning.
