"Happy to get a 7-0 win, but we still have a lot of room to get better," said Head Coach,
Daniel Finn, "I wasn't really pleased with our start in doubles and how we came played early on. We did what we needed to do today, but but the sloppy starts can only hurt us in the future. We will get right back to work Monday and start prepping for a big challenge coming Wednesday."
Keiser hits the road next week for a match with Division II, No. 2 Nova Southeastern on Wednesday, February 22 at 2:00 p.m.
