THEY SAID IT
Head coach Jaco Keyser

- On today's performance: "It was a good day for us. I thought we played some really good tennis. We came out and doubles was really good, singles were really good. I think we showcased some of our depth today. We need all nine players to play so it was great to see some of the girls who don't normally play get an opportunity to get in there and play some good quality tennis."
