// COACH TOTH ON FLANAGAN AND PENDERGAST
"Everyone around our department and program should be very pleased with the additions of Callie and Elizabeth to Bearcat Tennis. Both are high-character individuals that come from terrific families. I have been so impressed with both during the time I have spent with each during their respective recruitment. Tennis is certainly a priority in each of their lives and I believe both Callie and Elizabeth are far from a finished product. We are going to need both to continue to develop in the months leading up to each of them getting on campus next Fall and of course when they begin working with our team and staff. Both Callie and Elizabeth have what it takes to embrace and be successful in a program where you are challenged day in and out. I look forward to adding Callie and Elizabeth to our already impressive group next season."
