Quotes
"Overall it is great to finish out the clean slate in the conference schedule. We shook off a slow start in doubles to take the sweep and in singles Amy was phenomenal and Alanna did a great job closing out her opponent. Nice to see
Rachel McDonald coming on so strong at the end of the year and Izzy fought through a tough opponent as well. We are excited for NEWITT's next weekend and excited to be the No. 1 overall seed in the conference tournament." - Nichols head coach
