FROM THE SOURCE
Head Coach Bobby Pennington
"This was by far our most complete match start to finish for our women against a very good Marist team. Credit to 2 and 3 doubles and 1 through 6 singles just lights out domination and focus. Numbers never lie and that's 5 wins out of 6 and 6-4 overall headed into spring break. We have a lot of unfinished business and revenge left.
