FROM THE SIDELINES
- "Although we started the day very raw in doubles, our women shook off the early season dust from their games to compete at a level much more indicative of their play at the end of the fall season. I'm incredibly proud of how well composed our women were throughout the day. With showings like Frisch's 180 in singles, Jackson's tenacity through a long first-set tiebreak, and Milano's unwavering consistency and ability to open up angles, I'm excited to see what's ahead this spring!" said Coach Rohner.
UP NEXT
- The Tigers are back in action Saturday, February 27 at St. Mary's (Indiana).
