QUOTES FROM COACH KEYSER
-On returning to action: "I'm looking forward to it. We'll get some more match play so we'll take what we've been doing in practice and see if we can put it into the matches."
-On what he wanted during break between tournaments: "The disappointing part of the last tournament was we weren't executing the basic fundamentals, so we spent a lot of time on that and hopefully we firmed that up. That should allow us to get into more points and improve our point play."
-On what will constitute a successful weekend: "Getting a little better each day. We try to stack one good day on top of another. We know if we do that, or come close to doing that, we know we'll be a pretty good team when January comes around."
