Quote
"Today was a great showing for the guys against a quality opponent. We played some strong doubles, nearly earning the sweep. In singles we had a very solid day. Gui played well to clinch the team match in the third. Jack has a solid showing as did our first years JJ and Kerem. The match of the day goes to Pete Coletti at 3, he gutted out an incredible match. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come as we have a lot of positive take aways today." -Nichols head coach
