// COACH TOTH ON THE BEARCATS
"The only disappointment in today was not getting the win. Our effort was great and we played a pretty complete match from start to finish. I feel IU had to play some very good tennis to beat us. If you are going to come up short you want to at least bring out the best in your opponent and I think we did that today. We'll bounce back and be ready to go next Friday as we begin a tough stretch of matches beginning with Miami(OH) who always presents a challenge."

The Bearcats look to bounce back as they return home against the Miami (OH) Redhawks. The match is scheduled to begin at 5:00 p.m. on Friday, February 2nd and will be played at Western Tennis and Fitness Center.
