Head Coach
Daniel Finn said, "The girls did a good job early of controlling the tempo and doing what they needed to do to take care of business. We're going to play three matches in one day if you count the completion of the match against Indiana Wesleyan. That makes for a long day of tennis no matter who you are. I was very glad to see the girls jump out early and take care business."
