Head Coach Bobby Pennington
"Awful ending to a good season overall. We came out super flat and donated the doubles point. In singles, we powered our way back per usual and won three first sets. It was too little too late in the end. We say goodbye to Levenson, Atallah, and Untermeyer and return six players and bring in four freshmen."
