Quote From Head Coach Constantine Ananiadis
"Salisbury is a tough out!  They make you play lots of balls and test you in different ways.  They are well coached and disciplined.  We were fortunate to jump on a big lead with doubles, as the singles were evenly matched.  We're excited to get our first, of many, wins!"
