Coach's Corner

When asked about today's result, Head Coach Ali Borhani had this to say: "The boys took care of business. Happy with how everyone competed today." 

Oliver King on the result: "The boys started really well in the doubles after a long bus drive and came out and got the job done in doubles as expected. For me, I feel like I'm playing my best tennis since I've been here, so I'm feeling really fit and moving really well on the court. In singles we came out with good, loud energy and kept that for 2 hours until the very last point, so I'm really happy with myself and the boys today. This team has beaten Tennessee Wesleyan and has a close result Georgia Gwinnett so I'm really proud of the boys that we got the job done 6-1."
