"We were up 2-1 after doubles, having played three hard-fought matches. That's a pretty good position to be in going into singles. Unfortunately, we struggled in those matches, only getting one W of the six. We've been having a hard time playing with consistency and aggressiveness in singles. I think the girls learned a lot tonight about why those two facets of the game are so important," head coach Stephany Pace said. "As for senior night, it was an emotional one as we honored six tremendous young ladies who mean so much to us and to this team. It's such a bittersweet night for sure."
