SAY WHAT
"It was another match that we were in the right position again and then didn't finish. USF did a good job of staying in the match and hats off to them. Fortunately for us, we have a lot of tennis left to play and that happens again on Monday. We have an opportunity to learn from today's match and finish the momentum that got us the win in doubles." -
