I know the doubles point has been something we have all been working on. That will be something we would love to have in the bag for both of the games.

I just think that knowing you are playing against a Big Ten team sparks something within us. Automatically, it creates a different sense of excitement.

It's always fun playing a team that's that strong. We should never rule out anything from our part.

Playing them will be something we'll look forward to. We have a healthy rivalry, and they're a fun team to play.

It could be physically challenging. It's not something that we have done too often in the past. But then on the other hand, it will be a good test for us.

Whatever happens, a win always helps. That would be the biggest thing for us. We're trying to bag as many wins as possible before the Big Ten matches. That will always help the team and help everyone individually.
