Coach's Corner
"This was an intense match," stated head coach Daniel Finn. "That was a solid Wayne State squad and they brought the fight to us today. We tried some new things in doubles today and it certainly put us in the right direction. This has been a long stretch of matches the boys have played so to still be able to cut out some pretty intense matches shows our strength and depth. We got one more to get ready for tomorrow but I'm certainly confident in our boys and that they will bring the will to compete."
 
Up Next
The Seahawks will compete in their seventh match in as many days when Keiser takes on Missouri Baptist tomorrow at 11:30 a.m. The match is scheduled to be played at Oxbridge Academy.
