Thoughts From Coach Carlisle
"A lot of really tight matches for the girls today, but we just could not get any of them to go our way. We definitely had chances to get the doubles point which would have made a big difference, but I am proud of the girls for hanging tough and competing really well in singles.  Deondra and Vittoria picked up another big time win in doubles against a nationally ranked opponent.  They are undefeated in the conference so far and I am hoping they can finish it that way tomorrow."
 
Up Next
