QUOTING HEAD COACH TAYO BAILEY-DUVALL
"We are looking forward to competing in this year's regional championship, as it was cancelled last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It is always exciting to be able to compete against some of the top players of the region and some of the top players in college tennis. We have had a couple of good practices since our trip to Indiana. Everyone is playing very solid and I am excited to see us compete and apply some of the important tactics and mindsets we have been working on at practice."
