HEAD COACH ANGELO ANASTOPOULO
"Our team was so excited to be playing again and showed with our doubles results. We just couldn't maintain a consistent level throughout the singles. I'm sure with a good week of practice we will get better, which will be necessary against a loaded Georgia Southern team."
 
UP NEXT
