THEY SAID IT
Head Coach Nick Brochu
On the tournament: "Samford will be a good preparation for regionals. Everybody will be guaranteed to play three singles and three doubles. It's a good opportunity for the bottom guys to prove themselves. I expect Sacha and Sam to be the leaders this weekend. They had a good showing at the All-American and now they need to continue. It'll be a good test for them."
