There was an opportunity to change things up a bit and get some new chemistry going. It was really great the way that we played. A couple of teams had never played and I felt we had to do something different.

I thought it was great that we got a chance to play today. It was good to get that last bit of work in before we head to conference.

I thought it was a good match. We played well and it is good preparation for our conference matches coming up. It is always nice to win the last one for the seniors.

I am really pleased with the focus the kids are showing in these matches. Ever since spring break, I have just sensed a different team. I feel that they really want to prove themselves and their confidence and attitude is really at a high.

I think that we did a good job today to get back on track. It has been a difficult week. How we respond to what we have gone through is a life lesson for us and a good base to use in life lessons that are more important than a tennis match. To turn things around and make things better the rest of the season is a life lesson that they can store away and fall back on and use when things are difficult. I thought the way they approached today and how they played was a great way to respond to my challenge.

Whenever there is a change of some significance, it always presents an opportunity for competitors to make inroads. When a visible leader departs for unknown reasons, that always gives customers a reason to pause and provides an opportunity for its competitors to take advantage,
