WHAT THEY'RE SAYING:
"I will always be happy with my team's performance," head coach Boban Rankovic said. "Since I joined the Barry family, my main focus was providing an all-around good experience for the team. I feel as if myself and the coaching staff have created a place where our girls can develop lifelong friendships with each other. It's a place where they can be themselves, and grow into strong and confident women. With that said, winning and losing is a part of growing up, and we are excited to see what we can do at the Dad Vail Regatta."
