Quote
"The girls performed their best from doubles all the way to singles. Freshman
Kara Stankewitz had one of the best matches I have ever seen against a really tough opponent. Her game keeps growing every match. This was a solid win for the program against last season's championship runner-up and an undefeated team. We are looking forward to the playoffs." -Nichols associate head coach
Eduardo Irizarry
