From The Sidelines
"Despite this being our third match over the last three days, I thought we battled really hard and played with great energy throughout doubles and singles. We played some great doubles today – picking up the first point of the match – and definitely have something to be encouraged by with our improving doubles play. We just need to keep pushing forward and get back on the practice courts and look forward to next weekend's tough slate of matches." – Associate Head Coach Frank Polito
