THEY SAID IT
Head Coach Nick Brochu
On the loss to FAU: "Today was hard as it was extremely windy. The day started well as we took the doubles point. Our number one team had a bad day and were off, but I was happy to see our numbers two and three play big and win big matches. It went downhill from there. The lack of energy and effort was unacceptable. FAU was energized and we didn't fight back. We can't win them all, but losing like that on courts three and six is unacceptable. When you play for a team, you need to give everything you have on a good or bad day. We need to regroup and get ready for tomorrow.

UP NEXT
The Jags take on Miami Friday in Coral Gables, Fla.
