Thoughts from Coach Carlisle
 "Definitely not the result we wanted today, but considering we were down one of our top 3 players there's honestly a ton to be proud of. We were so close to getting the doubles point and had we gotten that I think singles could have been much different, but even after losing that the girls responded very well and got a bunch of leads in singles. Unfortunately we couldn't hold most of those early leads, but overall I'm extremely proud of the way we competed today and we'll take a lot more positives than negatives away from this match."
