// COACH TOTH ON THE BEARCATS
"Another tough one that did not go our way. Unfortunately, we were devoid of emotion at the start and played poorly in the doubles. Good programs like Marshall will make you pay for those kind of poor starts. The singles though was a fight. We played well across all courts. We just could not get to 4. All the credit to Marshall for getting it done. We'll look to bounce back tomorrow against an excellent VCU team. They are a great program and will provide a great opportunity for us."
