From Coach Bresky
“Really proud of the way our guys responded today. Going on the road in this conference is never easy, and to come out and take the doubles point the way we did really set the tone. I thought we competed at a high level across the board in singles, especially from our younger guys who continue to step up in big moments. This group has shown a lot of resilience all season, and it was great to see that again today.” – Head coach Tony Bresky
Up Next
The Demon Deacons will now return home for Suresh’s senior day against NC State in the regular season finale on Saturday, April 11.
