WORDS FROM COACH
Very nice win for the program today. ETSU has certainly always a hard team to compete against and today was no different, we really had to dig deep and play some aggressive tennis to win this one," said Christophe Noblet. "Very happy for the alumni, I know that meant a lot to them. Happy we got this one and we look forward to hosting UNA on Friday."
