From Coach Bresky
“Another good day – it was awesome to get outside and have a great crowd again. To get another 4-0 win over an ACC team was very good. Then, we followed up in the afternoon with another match to get some guys some more outdoor tennis. I love where we are at. Obviously, now we have to get ready to hit the road for some ACC matches, which is always challenging. We’re excited to keep testing ourselves against some really good team.” – Head coach Tony Bresky
