QUOTES FROM THE SEAWOLVES
"After dropping the doubles point, we found a way to come back and get the win against a good tea. It took all eight players to get this team win tonight. Tomorrow's match will need to have the same team mentality and team toughness while being a little more consistent against Brown." - head coach
Gary Glassman.
