// COACH TOTH ON THE BEARCATS
"I felt our girls finished today playing some very good tennis," stated head coach Eric Toth. "With Kelly, we saw some flashes of her 2015 form which was really good to see. She just got out played by a very good opponent. Harley and Caroline were impressive today, each beating good opponents. Lauren finished strong in what was an exceptional fall for her. Our upcoming regular season will be an exciting one. We'll collectively keep working hard so we are ready to go in January."
