When asked about today's result, Head Coach
Daniel Finn had this to say: "I thought we did a pretty good job today being businesslike from start to finish. The ladies knew what they had to do and executed when it mattered. Outside of a couple instances where we had to find our way, I thought it was a pretty strong performance overall, especially considering the setbacks and delays with the weather. Doubles really set the tone today and we were able to carry that momentum into singles. We will take tomorrow to clean up a few more things and get ready for another tough test on Monday."
Keiser will have another strong opponent in front of them with No. 5 Xavier University of Louisiana on Monday at home. First serve from Patch Reef Park in Boca Raton, Fla. is set for 2:00 p.m.
