QUOTES FROM COACH KEYSER
"We definitely took a big step in the right direction this weekend. It would have been nice to turn one or two matches our way today, but I loved the way we engaged, especially indoors in some matches against some really stiff competition. We competed all the way to the finish. If we can continue on this path, then we will be a tough out for anyone on our schedule this upcoming season."
