COACH MATT MOORE'S COMMENTS
I am so proud of our ladies. We knew a win would secure the No. 2 seed in the conference tournament and provide us a bye. They all executed on all cylinders. We continue to improve in doubles and are growing in our confidence with singles. Time to work hard this week and bring home a championship.
