Colgate Head Coach Bobby Pennington
"This was a great day and an electric atmosphere for the boys today. Credit to Rochester for really pushing us, but our guys responded. Senior captain Nick Laub clinched the match at No. 1 singles in front of a packed home crowd. It was nice to have all the starters healthy. Our goal was to start the season at 5-0, but we will take 4-1. Bring on Fordham and Villanova!"

Up Next
