THEY SAID IT
Head Coach Nick Brochu
On Florida road trip:Â "The guys are looking forward to the challenge. We will be playing three tough opponents, all ranked near the top 50 in the country. We've been playing better and better every week. Our schedule is very competitive this year and it will prepare us for the conference tournament in a few weeks."
Â
On what will be key for their three road matches: "I think the doubles point will be key for us this week. If we can get the momentum in our favor by winning the doubles point, it will allow us to be aggressive in singles."
