Coach's Corner
Head Coach Daniel Finn said, "I'm very proud of these ladies today as they handily beat a very strong team today. Today, we came out a little slow but were able to fight our way doubles to get out a 2-1 lead. After that, the ladies really controlled the match and I couldn't be happier with how they finished the match off. Great way to end the regular as we get ready for the conference tournament next week."
