"Today was a solid match. We had to shake off a slow start in areas but we figured things out in the end. Meg and Juli did a great job shaking off a tough doubles loss and rebounding in singles with strong showings. Amie won a fantastic match filled with great points against a tough opponent. We've got a big weekend ahead and hopefully we can continue our strong play." –Nichols head coach
