COACH MATT MOORE'S COMMENTS
It was fantastic to see Earlham back and competing in tennis matches! Our players did an excellent job controlling the pace of the matches and looking for opportunities to be on the offensive. I loved our willingness to get into the court and execute on short balls. Our team continues to make great strides and we are looking forward to two more matches on Saturday.
