COACH SCOTT GREVE'S COMMENTS

Everyone continued to take the necessary steps to make sure we are moving forward as teams. It was important for us as coaches to see a couple of different pairings in doubles. We had some struggles, but overall, the continued improvement is excellent. The freshmen continue to impress and the upperclassmen continue to bring the stability you need for success. The next two weeks will be fun as we compete at the ITA's and see what the individuals can achieve as well.
