Quote from Coach
"We really played a great match today," head coach Steve Mauro said. "Doubles was extremely close, but it just didn't go our way in the end. We played well in singles too but it just wasn't enough against such a talented Princeton team. We are looking forward to using this as we face more top ranked teams in the future."
