QUOTABLE
"Today we had opportunities in both doubles and singles to pull out a win. We came up short, but I feel we gained the confidence needed to pull out wins against these teams and keep moving in the right direction. This team is showing their resiliency and it's great to see." – head coach George Rodriguez
