"I'm incredibly proud and honored for our guys to go down to DePauw and get the win," Wabash head coach Will Bernhardt said. "Any road meet is always going to be difficult, but when it's against your rival it always becomes a little tougher. To go down and dominate the way we did is truly special. You don't see a lot of those types of performances through the course of anyone's career. It's been a long time since we defeated them in a regular dual meet. I'm proud of everyone's efforts, especially our seniors. It's the first time they've beaten DePauw in a dual meet. For them to go out this way is phenomenal.
 
"I'm really excited about the rest of the season and what we have in store after a winter break and get ready to start the 2022 portion of the season."
