Post-Match Quotes – Head Coach
Patrick Grashorn
“I couldn't be happier with the way both teams played tonight. We are peaking at the right time heading into post-season play next weekend. Once again, Eric and Matheus stepped up huge and took down the #5 ranked doubles team in our region and Christian fought off a match point to keep his singles win streak alive. Even with the close loss at one singles and even though we had individual ups and downs, the team as a whole took care of business. Very proud of the teams and our seniors in their last regular season match.”
