Quote
"It was nice to get back on the winning side of things today. After a slow start we were able to rebound and play some solid singles matches. Lindsey and Juli really led the way for us, stepping up at the No. 1 doubles and both their matches. Senior captain Domantas stepped into the singles line up and did a great job for us as well. Hopefully we can pick up another win against Franklin Pierce on Senior Day." -Nichols head coach Paul Brower
