Thoughts From Coach Carlisle
"I am so proud of the girls for their effort tonight. Westmont has a very good team and we really gave them all they could handle tonight. As a team, this was the best doubles we have played this year, and maybe the best we have played since I have been here. Deondra and Vittoria picked up a massive win in doubles against a nationally ranked team, and Deondra followed that up with the biggest singles win of her career against one of the best players in the region. We are definitely making progress and if we can figure out doubles I think we will have a chance to make some noise this year."
