Head Coach Nick Brochu
On carrying the momentum from the tournament into tomorrow: "We are coming back from a great weekend at the H.E.B. Invitational. We need to carry the momentum into tomorrow's match. Not only did the guys win the tournament, but they had to dig deep to do so by winning many three-set matches. We are feeling good and looking forward to play in front of our fans."
