THEY SAID IT
Head Coach Nick Brochu
On the morning matches: "It was one of the worst mornings we have had in a while. All three guys were inconsistent in their matches and played with negative attitudes. I wasn't happy with us going 0-3."
 
On singles play in the afternoon: "We had a team meeting after the morning matches to talk about what needed to change immediately. The guys went on the court, competed well and we came out with three good victories."
 
On doubles action: "We were better in doubles, but Loic and Clement missed many targets and Tulane took advantage of it. Oli and Lucas returned really well and were able to take an early lead and never looked back."
