COACH SCOTT GREVE'S COMMENTS
This is a huge win for our program. Trine is a very good tennis team and for our guys to travel to their campus and come up with a win is a very important step for us as we seek to build a championship program. Davis Borders came up with a very important victory for our team. He took control in a tiebreaker and refused to give it up. Senior Dylan Lemon and freshmen Luis Guerrero and Pedro Sette also came up with great wins that put Davis in the position to clinch the match for us.
